Product Details

SIERRA NEVADA BIGFOOT Barleywine needs time to mellow. Its a style with a lot of potential, especially with the amount of barrel ageing going on right now, so I was prepared to write a review about being disappointed about Bigfoots failed potential. But the beer is much better this time around and Im sure Ill be cracking that last bottle tonight too.Into a snifter, it pours a deep amber with a finger of somewhat creamy head. The nose is bursting with caramelized malts and big whole leaf hops. The flavor brings some of that sweet, malty caramel, bitter hops and golden raisins. The lasting taste is cool (from the booze), slightly syrupy with a faint touch of apple cobbler.

Bigfoot® Barleywine Style Ale

Our cult-classic beast of a barleywine.

Bigfoot is a beast of a beer, brimming with bold flavors of bittersweet malt and heaps of aggressive whole-cone Pacific Northwest hops. First introduced in the winter of 1983, Bigfoot is a cult-classic beer brewed in the barleywine style, meaning a strong, robust, bruiser of a beer with the refined intensity of a wine. Bigfoot is prized by beer collectors for its supreme cellarability. Under the proper conditions, it can age like a fine wine, developing new flavors and character as it matures in the bottle. Each new release or “expedition” is vintage dated. Collect your own and see the flavors develop and progress.
