Served in a pint glass at Mellow Mushroom in Charlottesville. From notes. Reviewed 9 July 2011.

A: Nice creamy head; off-white. Susceptible to light, but not translucent. Red-brown edges with a dark core.

S: Vanilla. Oak. Quite nice. Old ale style yeast.

T: Weird, but good. Quite strong and kind of funky. Malty -- caramelly sweet -- with an odd drying sourness. I really like it, but maybe it's not for everyone.

M: Smooth, sweet, and a tad dry-tart. Real nice.

O: Great beer. An oddity, but very worthwhile. Will have again. Definitely recommended.

On-tap at Bavarian Lodge on November 26th, 2011. 9-10 oz. served in a snifter.

A - Very dark brown coloring with a touch of deep red around the edges of the snifter. Good lacing. Little retention of a light brown head.

S - Overt malt grains. Roasted almonds, cashews, nuts, light caramel, and plentiful dark fruits. I need a 3.75 rating.

T - Again, malts reign supreme here. Dates, figs, burnt raisins, a touch of rye bread, and slightly astringent, overripe plums. Short waves of milk chocolate as the drink warms to room temperature.

M - Medium body, good carbonation. Not particularly creamy. Average-length finish with a roasted aftertaste.

D - This is about what I expected. Still, I think this is well-done as a melting pot for malts and I would love to check out the older batches to see where age can take this.

I was able to enjoy this on tap at Bob's bar in Columbus... Poured into a snifter.

Appearance: Dark brown-black pour with a creamy and dense pale tan head that settles slowly. The head eventually dissipates into a short little creamy ribbon that leaves a thick lace down the glass. Truly a beautiful beer.

Smell: The smell was a little hard to identify, but could definitely detect a lot of dark fruits and some subtle sweetness of toffee. The malt aromas were complex and delicious.

Taste: This beer was phenomenal with huge robust flavors that were nearly overwhelming. The malt profile was too complex for me to identify everything, but it reminded me of a cross between an imperial stout and a scotch ale. Incredible flavors that are well blended and powerful. Nice toasted malt flavors combined with a rich almost smoky flavor and a hint of coffee as well. The alcohol/booziness is present but not overpowering. Very well done.

Mouthfeel: The body is full and thick and the carbonation is medium, just perfect for the beer. This is an incredibly drinkable beer for >9%.

Overall: An excellent beer that is very well done. The alcohol is surprisingly mellow and this is a beer I wish I could have a large supply of. Thank you Bell's for batch 10,000!

Appearance: Translucent mahogany with a medium tan head, laces nicely.

Smell is grapefruit pith, pine resins, roasted caramel malt, coffee. It's quite complex. Taste is roasted caramelly malt and coffee dominate, but when sipping dominating a whole host of other flavors - oranges, chocolate, peat, pine, tree bark, anise and earthy herbs..

Mouthfeel: Smooth, creamy.

Drinkability: As always this one is unique. One serving at a time, enjoyed in moderation.

On tap at Bell's Tap Takeover at Mellow Mushroom in Charlottesville, VA.

Big lacing, finger of off-white head, dark brown body.

Nose is interesting, prunish, malt.

Big malt taste-- leathery and oaky. Subtleties on the aftertaste... nuttiness predominant, trace of coffee. Kind of mushroomy.

Mouthfeel is pretty standard.

Malty, exciting, subtle, but not boozy or harsh. Excellent.

look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4

Deep, dark appearance, kind of a plummy brown, small, cocoa-tinged head, slim, but staying.

Aroma: chocolate at first, raisin and plum, dark malty goodness. Richness aplenty, but not too sweet. Wonderfully balanced. Delightful.

Taste: easy entry on the palate, with a charge of cocoa, dark, sweet, caramel and chocolate malt behind. Some vanilla and oak hints emerge, some bourbon tints, flaked chocolate, Sweetness is rising. At first it tastes like a stout, even an Imperial Stout, and now the flavors of a barley-wine, or old ale come rushing in. We're getting more prune, now, some date, some raisin, and more sourness, and higher alcohol feeling.

This is clearly a hybrid between a strong stout and an old ale, with no one side taking over. I kind of like that. No. wait…I really like it.

A little licorice, some char, deep woodiness, dark malt….the 5 months it's aged have mellowed it well. Mmmm, it's nice.

I'm finishing it up right now. Mmmm. Yes. Oh, wait, one more word: ahhh…..

served in a bells tulip/snifter glass. At Old Chicago in Rockford at Bells Tap Takeover night.

Appearance: dark brown with red highlights. Tanish color head that is 2 fingers tall. Sticky lacing on glass.

Smell: Pine, grass, and roasted malts.

Taste: Malty body with a mild roastiness thats immediately interupted by a hoppy bitterness of pine and grass. Molasses, coffee, and dark fruit linger behind the hops in the beer. Aftertaste is all hop flavors.

Mouthfeel: moderate body with moderate carbonation. This beer is smooth and sticky.

Overall: Tried this beer when it was fresh and tasted a strong flavor of black licorice. Now the black licorice is now where to be found. The hops have taken over the flavor of this beer, but it has a nice complexity to it.

Pours extremely dark reddish-brown with a little light penetration. Smallish tight head, medium tan colored, recedes relatively quickly and evenly, a film remains.
Smell is fairly weak with mostly hops present and a toasted malt backing it up.
Taste is better with a strong hop note up front followed by roast malt and light smoke.
Full body, lightish effervescence. A smoky hops aftertaste remains behind. Balance up to this point is not a real strong point but finishes well. Despite that, and the over-hppy nature, IMO, its a good beer and I would gladly have it repeatedly.

Bell's batch 10k has a translucent brown body with ruby highlights. The off-white head is small yet solid looking. IT manages some decent retention, but doesn't leave behind any lacing.

The aroma is mostly hops with a hint of malt in the background. Sharp pine notes, some grapefruit and a little bit of an herbal or floral character.

The taste is both strong and interesting, leaning heavily on hops. Pine and resinous flavors are the most powerful in this beer, and they are rather sharp in flavor with a biting bitterness. Hints of citrus peak through, but really more orange than grapefruit, which was my evaluation of the aroma. The malt base is a tad darker than the average strong ale, and certainly darker than a normal IPA. What you good is understated caramel and toffee flavors that are a bit richer than more. More interestingly, however, is the interaction between the hops and the malt. When mixed with the malt, the hops, especially the pine flavors, produce an almost minty flavor, with perhaps some jasmine in there. This is the herbal scent I noticed. I'm not sure that I dig this part of the flavor profile, but it is there and it is interesting. The finish has a strong warming presence with perhaps a touch of alcohol flavor.

Mouthfeel is perhaps a tad light, but nothing too bad.

I could see someone else loving this beer. It is an interesting and fairly unique strong ale, but I don't think I would want another one.

Pours a black color. 3/4 inch head of an off-white color. Great retention and great lacing. Smells of sweet malt, slight liquor based alcohol, slight rye/grain, slight floral hops, slight oatmeal, hint of dark citrus. Mouth feel is sharp and crisp, with an average carbonation level. Tastes of sweet malt, citrus and floral hops, juniper-like spiciness, liquor based alcohol, slight roasted malt, and slight wood. Wow, this was a complex beer. Good appearance, aroma, body, blend, and complexity.

Poured into a snifter from a tap at the iTap House (Chesterfield) during their Bell's Batch 10,000 Event for their 2 Year Anniversary Party.

Appearance- There was absolutely no head except a cream layer on top. Almost a pitch black color with a hint of the darkest brown you can find.

Smell- The aroma has definite roasted notes with a great amount of malt included.. Not sure what else I smell because of the strong alcohol present.

Taste- Roasted malts and almost a straight coffee or chocolate stout copy. Impressed with how strong the flavor is. Awesome!

Mouthfeel- Hits the palate with a whiskey/bourbon taste. Full Bodied and loving every minute of it.

Drinkability- Wonderful ale but not something I could have many of. It took almost an hour to finish the snifter of this Batch 10,000. I would recommend anyone to try it if available on tap.

served cold from the tap and poured to a standard pint a deep amber brown with a thin off white short lasting head with nice retention and lace to the rim.

aroma of mild hops and big malts. interesing balance.

wow. great big beer. big piney hops readily evident - but quickly followed by thick roasty chocolate malts. difficult to pick out the varied flavors given the balanced blend.

smooth, creamy, big bodied, bitter hops forward followed by sweet-ish malts.

drinkable - yes, but only if you plan to stay put awhile.

Served on-tap in a clear nonic pint glass at Beer Run (Charlottesville, VA).

A: Dull sawdusty cedar with thin collar of big-bubbled off-white soapy-looking head with no real lacing.

S: Maltiness is pretty thick but seems muddied although chocolate, roasted malt, and rye come through with more sugary raisin. Hoppiness is evident as an orange and tobacco presence.

T: Falls a bit dull with the malts giving a light chocolate and raisin hint but really coming out a little on this side of cardboardy. Hops are pretty bright with orange, floral, and light earthy tobacco notes as well. Alcohol hits the back end with some spice.

M: Easy to drink due to the low carbonation overall but the heft has a really nice, silky feel.

D: Batch 10000 is a pretty good beer that doesn't really hold a candle to the last several Bell's even batch series.

On tap at the Bells Tap Takeover at Beer Run, Charlottesville, VA. Served in a nonic.

Appearance: Arrives a dark though transparent amber sepia, with the difference between the surface and the rim of the glass suggesting an initial one finger or so of tan lace, though nothing remained by the time this one was delivered to the table. The surface lacing is consistent, at least, replenished by steady carbonation, and there sits atop the surface a bubbly, frothy collar of foam, though there's no lacing on the sides of the glass.

Aroma: Toasty malts dominate, relatively dry and inoffensive though relatively uncomplex. It's amazing that something made with so many different grains and malts can smell so straightforward. Hints of rye do begin to emerge as this one warms, but other than that it's just slight dark fruits (raisins), toffee, and spicy notes, suggesting cinnamon raisin toast at points, though that perhaps does it too much justice.

Taste: Rye is a little stronger here than in the nose, mingling well with spicy moderate to slightly-south-of-high hoppy bitterness, leafy tobacco notes, oranges (chocolate oranges), raisins, leather, and figs. The malt base is still largely toasty, though there are flashes of lighter roasts, toffee and molasses mainly. Faint alcohol brings up the rear, a little stronger than I'd like or that I think it should be at 9.2%.

Mouthfeel: Plenty of lift in this one, but the body has enough thickness and heft to it that the end result is bright, but not eruptive or distracting.

Drinkability: Lacking somewhat. As I expressed above, it seems that what's good for soup or a casserole or salad is good for beer: careful layering of a few intelligently selected and complimentary ingredients (even if they're not your favorite) can produce a result vastly superior to tossing the kitchen sink in to a brew kettle (or wok, or salad bowl, or whatever the case may be). I'm not a fan of syrupy thick sweetness or anise, but I preferred Batch 9000 (brewed with both brewer's licorice and molasses) to this one. As it stands, this one isn't a bad beer, but it is slightly unfortunate to see the "Batch X000" series - a series that brought such outstanding winners as Batch 6000 and Batch 7000 and less superior but still fantastic brews such as Batch 8000 - go out with a whimper, rather than bang.

On-tap at Flying Saucer served in a standard pint glass a deep opaque black with a nice light tan head that lasts as a thin layer and leaves nice lacing on the glass. Aroma is nice subtle amount of dark malts and burnt caramel. The taste is a nice kick of dark malts and bitter cocoa that gives way to a very interesting bitter hop finish. The beer is medium bodied with well hidden alcohol. This is a very enjoyable, well balanced beer, I was glad I got to try it since NC didn't get bottles of it.

Poured ontap. A dark brown in color with a short livid head. Aroma of roasted malt and a sweet fruity note. In the taste, some roasted malts making me think this is almost a stout. Mild cherry and fruity tones attributed to the yeast. Malt body is formidable with roasted, caramel and brown sugar flavors. Overall, a nice roasty barleywine, or a damn fine American strong ale.

Pours a s dark cola looking color with a creamy head. Smells of burnt malts and some pine and grapefruit malts. Taste starts with some chocolate and a touch of burnt malt that is balanced with some piney and grapefruit hops.ends with a piney bitterness. Not uber complex, but is definitely cellar worthy. I wish I had some bottles of this to see how it develops.

On tap in a pint glass at Barley's Smokehouse on 12/27/10

Dark plum/brown color with highlights the color of grape juice. Poured 1/4th inch head that takes it's time in dissipating to bubbly, foamy swaths. Retention is thin but good. Impressive wall of lace.

The aroma is over-saturated with malt & hops. Some pine, peppery citric zest of various & sundry ilk, toasted malt, pilsner malt, granular sugar, caramel, toffee, brown sugar, maybe a little rye, dark bread, faint nail polish remover in the back. With warmth, candy hints & subtle dark fruits emerge.

The taste is a vapid, dry wasteland of fermentable detritus. Simply put, too much is going on here; far too much. Hops are earthy, piney & have a penchant for solvency. The solvent-like aspects aren't scathing but they are definitely noticeable. Some astringent bitterness is appreciable; bummer. The malt bill is equally boisterous. Toasted grains, pilsner malt, multi-grain bread, caramel, cocoa & other residual sugars. The sugars really start to pick up as it warms.

Basically full bodied. Carbonation is well-proportioned. Neither attributes are such that I can complain. The finish is another story. There is a chalky feel that is smeared all over the latter half of the beer. Interestingly enough, the whole of the flavors culminate with a charcoal like flavor lingering on (I prefer burnt/charcoal notes in imperial stouts but I can deal with this). Hmm, as it warms & the sugars become more potent, it begins to have a coating, medicinal feel.

Drinkability is ok. I like it better than from the bottle but, after it was implied that I had a "bad" bottle (I simply don't think that was the case), I figured it reasonable to give BTK a fair shake on draft. I maintain the gimmick overshoots the capabilities of the beer. This still isn't a barleywine, by the by. Batch, please.

Had on tap. Poured into a tulip.

A- Pours a dark brown color. Half finger tan head that dies down rather quickly. Some light whisps on the top of the beer. Medium streaks of lacing on the sides of the glass.

S- Smoked malts seem to come through when this beer warms up. For me though there was just a lot going on in the aroma. Roasted malts, chocoalte malts, and some light bready notes here and there. Piney and citrus hops with a touch of alcohol. Tons of different things going on in the nose but these are the dominate aromas.

T- This beer I drank once it warmed. The roasted malts, chocoalte malts, and some other darker style malts come in with a nice piney hop bite in the front end of the beer. There is some light coffee notes toward the middle but these seem to phase out bringing back the roasted malts. A light citrus bite in the back gets covered buy a larger bitter piney bite in the ending. The alcohol comes in toward the middle of the ending. There are a lot of flavors going on in this beer but these are the top.

M- Medium heavy mouthfeel. Carbonation is good for the style. Lots of malts left on the palate with some alcohol and roasted malts with bitter piney hops left in the aftertaste. Flavors were well balanced for everything that was thrown in it. Medium heavy drying on the palate from the alcohol. Clean tasting overall with no off flavors.

D- This was a good tasting beer. I was surprised because I didn't know what to expect. The ABV showed through from the middle to ending of the beer. Bell's made a soild beer once again when they created this one. I had I think 3 of them before I moved onto something else. Not a beer I would drink a sixer of but the 3 10oz pours did it for me.

A deep dark wood color with some haze, and a small head. Aroma is a big, malty beer with roasty overtones. There's campfire and there's candy as well... tastes like a maltier imperial stout but the malts are lacking character, at least at this temperature; so I am going to wait for it to open up.

Finally, I decide in its favor... I like it better than most stouts, possibly because it delivers the roasty punch but without the irritating tartness... I think this will be great with a smoke. But, the mouthfeel is a tad thin and it is also somewhat pale in comparison to 9,000 which was one of my favorites.

pours a deep opaque dark brown with a finger of beige head. smells of sweet malt, chocolate, raisins, brown sugar... a very sugary feel on the nose. this is a very tasty sweet brew, lots of brown sugar and molasses up front, a slight dark chocolate feel, some tree bark-like bitterness. honestly perfectly in between a bitter and sweet experience, perfectly balanced. medium in body with a very low amount of carbonation.

i feel if this beer were fuller in body it would be perfect. feels like a brown ale going down, but tastes like a strong ale. abv is well hidden. lovely beer, i'm sure it was probably better with a bit more carbonation (or like i said would have been perfect with a fuller body).

Reviewing the Batch 10,000 from Bell's Brewery Inc. out of Kalamazoo, Michigan. This brew is billed as a "strong brown ale."

Score: 90


Bottled on 11/16/10 according to Bell's Batch Finder. Served in a Portsmouth Brewery snifter and enjoyed on 02/24/13. I shared this one with my friend Wes. Review is from iPhone notes

Appearance: Barleywine-like in color. Pours a thin layer of bubbly tan head that totally settles. Not much lacing or retention to speak of. 3/5

Smell: Toffee, berry-like oxidation, leather and caramel. Hint of vanilla. Old bookshelf-like smell. Fig and dates too behind the oxidization. 4/5

Taste: Lots of caramel and toffee. Ample dark fruit. Much less berriness than nose; the oxidation is very faint on palate. Bitter hop finish that is not quite stale, but not fresh either. Dates and fig and dark fruit is more prominent on palate 4.25/5

Mouthfeel: Malty, sticky. Medium-plus bodied, low carbonation. 4/5

Overall: I had low expectations going into this beer, but I found I enjoyed it more than Batch 9,000 and my very aged bottles of Batch 7,000 and Batch 8,000.

Cost: $18 for a six pack.

so this one had been out there for about a year by the time of this review, my first sampling:

a: served in a tall tulip glass, batch 10000 is a deep brown in color with some dark ruby hues, sporting a tan head with low retention

s: fermented dark fruit syrups - raisin and date, maybe some plum, alcoholic liqueur as it warms, warm brown sugars, loads of piney hops with undertones of earth, buried aromas of tobacco, wood, and cocoa, pleasantly and subtly complex - and really seems to come around as it warms

m: carbonation light-moderate, with a body on the heavier side of the medium range, some malty weight but fairly even keeled

t: covers a range of malt flavors (no surprise there - 100 fermentables) - toasty, caramel, tobacco, woody, biscuit, sweet dark sugars on one side and roasted notes on the other, with a lighter malt center keeping things balanced out, loaded hop flavors tend towards earth and pine with a full, growing bitterness, finish dries completely with lingering acids, pine, and roast flavors

o: an interesting beer at least, the smorgasbord effect lead to there being a little of everything here, and it balances out to an enjoyable beer, but one without any standout feature, I'm cool with it - one more to cellar for the ages
