Posted by on Thursday, January 31, 2008 in - 6 comments
A few years ago, before most of you knew what a beer blog was, I posted a post with a list of the names of barley wines that would be available at a certain beer fest. My favorites in the list were Fish Leviathan, Lagunitas Old Gnarlywine and Winthrop Buzzards Breath. I've never had any of these …
