Jason S is drinking a Barren Wood (2022) by Skookum Brewery
Amazing shelfie BiL. Much better than any other local comparable barleywines from E9 or Matchless or other breweries. Fig and toffee and zero off flavors.

Jason S is drinking an Ad Arma! (2023) by Brujos Brewing
Very solid IPA still. But we’re all lying if you don’t notice a drop off in quality from the previous brewing setup. I have had 3 cans now, all we’re flat and all had gloopy chunks of yeast or something in cans. Hoping future releases return to greatness.

Jason S is drinking a Bucket Hat Bobby by Away Days Brewing Co.
Pretty damn solid for a non BA barleywine. Probably about as good as it gets for this style. Hope they have some of this in barrels.

Jason S is drinking a Sekiu by E9 Brewing Co.
By far the worst of the 3 years. Very thin this year and almost has an off banana note. Still decent for the price but no where near last 2 years version. Why change a good thing!?
