Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Ale 2013: Review

2013 Bigfoot Barleywine Style Ale
Sierra Nevada Brewing Company
Chico, California, USA
$10.99 a four pack
9.6% abv

Appearance: copper body with a one finger beige colored head

Aroma: nice spicy hops tingles the nose with a rich malt backbone

Flavors: spicy hops up front, pine on the mid and finish along with alcohol, white grapefruit peel on the aftertaste, brown spice bread in the background,

Mouthfeel: rich style, thick, oily, alcohol warmth and alcohol peppery feel, moderate fizzy carbonation, bitterness up front followed by the sweet brown spice bread, white grapefruit lingers on the palate, full body, more bitter than sweet


To the Point: I like this ale; it is a sipper; I would give this a 90%; A-
