Deschutes Mirror Mirror Review

Last night at my local pub of 38 taps they had on Deschutes Brewing's first ever Barleywine, Mirror^2. Of course i was very anxious to try and see what kind of barleywine they decided to come up with. Very tasty -- very much like a Rogue Old Crusty.. heavy on the malt and light on the hops, in contrast to the Bigfoot (also on tap!). I would of preferred a bit more carbonation but that didn't stop me from finishing of about 3 of these puppies.

And unlike that wimpy place (whisky bar) my brothers always take me in Boise for Bigfoot, they served me 2 happy hour 20 ouncers, not that lame 10-12 ounce snifters that is all too commonly served in pubs across the country when serving 10% ABV barleywines.

Come out and join me for a pitcher...
