The 12 Best Social Media Conferences to Attend in 2013
Posted on January 13th 2013
It's the beginning of a new year, and as our thirst for social media education and learning best practices from other businesses is only on the increase, there's no better time to start planning to attend the best social media conferences that 2013 has plans to offer us than now. In this annual list (click here for the 2012 best social media conferences list), I am not attempting to make a list that is inclusive of each and every social media conference that exists; on the contrary, as a social media speaker myself I want to hand pick those conferences that are 1) national or global in scale, 2) have a solid track record, and 3) have a speaker's list that would be appealing to the reader of this blog. Just as I write blog posts to help simplify all things social media, I am hoping this list will provide you an accessible guide to assist you in your planning of attending social media conferences in 2013.
Compared to my list of last year, I did strive to find more events outside of my native United States to speak to the global readership of this blog, and I am happy to announce the addition of new events in Europe as well as Australia – although I still haven't found one for Canada, yet (if you know of any please make sure you recommend them in the comments below). Some of these conferences have multiple events where they have not announced dates and locations for their conferences to be held later in the year, so make sure you check back here for updates! Do feel free to add other social media conferences that you recommend in the comments. Thanks!
(note: conferences are listed in alphabetical order)
BlogWell – April 17, 2013, New York, New York; June 19, 2013, Chicago, Illinois; August 6, 2013, Bay Area, California
Last year, BlogWell provided their unique event, where 8 great case studies on the best social media programs at large companies are presented to audiences, at 5 locations across the United States. At the time of writing this post, that number has been reduced to 3, making each event all the more valuable to attend. BlogWell is run by SocialMedia.org, a community of social media leaders where members help each other by sharing ideas, best practices, and solutions. BlogWell speakers will present case studies from many well known brands, including confirmed appearances this year from Walgreens and ComEd. Last year presentations included those from well-known companies such as McDonalds, AMD and Farmer's Insurance, all of whom have been featured on this blog.
Content Marketing World 2013 - September 9 – 12, 2013, Cleveland, Ohio
With the growth of the content marketing industry, there is no better place to learn about topics that include Managing Content Marketing and the ROI of Content Marketing than at Content Marketing World, the brainchild of the "Father of Content Marketing," Joe Pulizzi, and his Content Marketing institute. CMW is undoubtedly the largest gathering of content marketing professionals in the world. Check out an example of what you might see being presented with Joe's recent presentation on The State of Content Marketing in 2013:
The Corporate Social Media Summit – June 12 – 13, 2013, New York City, New York
The Corporate Social Media Summit is one of a number of social media summits put on by Useful Social Media. Last year, they held conferences dedicated to social media for customer service as well as B2B corporate social media, but at the time of this post, these dates have not been confirmed yet. The Corporate Social Media Summit lives up to its branding in that 100% of the speakers are corporate representatives. A look at the list of speakers from their upcoming New York event gives you a hint as to the high level of speakers – and attendees – this event attracts: The CMOs from MasterCard, Hertz, Outback Steakhouse, Sears and FootLocker are all scheduled to provide their corporate social media insights.
Inbound Marketing Summit – April 3 – 4, 2013, New York City, New York; June 18 – 19, 2013, San Francisco, California; October, 2013, Boston, Massachusetts
Similar to content marketing, "inbound marketing" is another buzzword in social media that continues to grow in importance, although as the Google Trends chart below indicates, has not achieved the same publicity that the more generic content marketing term has:
That being said, don't let that stat mislead you as to the importance of this conference and Inbound Marketing in general, which is the name of the classic book written by the founders of Hubspot. The Inbound Marketing Summit has become one of the leading national conferences for digital and social media marketing professionals and is the one event that brings together enterprise CMOs, business leaders, agency execs and their teams, awesome keynotes, expert panels, plus solutions providers and their tools, all in a dynamic, community-based setting.
iStrategy Conference - April 16-17, Sydney, Australia; April 23-24, 2013, Miami, Florida; May 14-15, 2013, The Hague, Netherlands
iStrategy is unique in this list as they are the only conference that is held on three continents: Europe, North America & Australia. As they put it, their mission is to "spread passion for existing and emerging digital media throughout the world, where each event offers original experiential learning opportunities for participants." While the concentration is on digital, there is more than enough social media content to keep you satisfied, including an emphasis on "results-oriented digital and social media strategies." iStrategy has done some pretty unique things at their conferences to build community and encourage participant engagement while creating a uniquely educational event, including this panel that I was fortunate to be part of at their London conference in May of 2012:
Marketing 2.0 Conference - April 15-16, Hamburg, Germany
The Marketing 2.0 Conference appears on this list for the first time and is a European conference aimed at all professionals who think that today's marketing industry is in need of a change! They have an exciting speaker's list featuring corporate representatives from not only American companies like Ford (Scott Monty), Hershey's, and McDonald's but also global organizations such as World Bank, Lego and Shell. This conference is actually being held for the 9th time and was formerly known as the International Word-of-Mouth-Marketing Conference. If you're looking to learn about social business from global leaders in an international and intimate environment, this conference would be the one that I recommend you attend. Here's a glimpse at one of their previous conferences:
NMX presented by BlogWorld - January, 2014, Las Vegas, Nevada
NMX, formerly known as BlogWorld is undoubtedly the largest in scale and longest running social media event on this list. Originally for bloggers, NMX includes enough social media speakers and workshops that it always comes recommended as the default starting point for anyone looking to attend only one social media conference this year. Timing-wise, NMX 2013 just ended as I write this blog post, so look for an update on this blog for when their next event will be, which I estimate will be close to CES in Las Vegas in January of 2014.
Online Marketing Summit – February 11 – 13, 2013, San Diego, California; Fall, 2013, New York City, New York; October 22 – 25, 2013, Silicon Valley, California
The Online Marketing Summit puts education first. Beyond the usual conference and tradeshow set-up, through lab sessions with experts, thought-leadership presentations and peer-to-peer collaboration, OMS's focus is providing direct, hands-on training workshops that are personalized and one-on-one. A three-day event traditionally about online marketing, there is a healthy enough dose of social media marketing content for those in attendance to deserve a recommendation for those, especially those of you in marketing.
Social Fresh Conference - (East) April 18 – 19, 2013, Tampa Bay, Florida
Social Fresh advertises itself as "The Social Media Conference You've Always Hoped For," and after personally attending their Social Fresh West conference in San Diego last year, I can recommend this conference with confidence for its unique combination of world class speakers, audience participatory events (the audience actually competed in different teams in making a social media campaign that will be implemented by a specific nonprofit), and excellent networking opportunities. In other words, when you attend a Social Fresh conference, you are not only learning about social media but also becoming part of a community for social media professionals. If you're looking for a combination of "big town speakers" with a "small town feel," this conference is for you! Check out SocialFresh's founder, Jason Keath, describing his events in his own words:
Social Media Marketing World – April 7 – 9, 2013, San Diego, California
The newest conference on this list is also the one that comes most recommended if you were only going to attend one social media conference this year, and I'm not just saying that because I'll be speaking at it: It is presented by the social media authorities at Social Media Examiner and it includes presentations not only by brands but also by many who have appeared on my best social media books, top social media thought leaders, and best social media blogs lists: Guy Kawasaki, Mari Smith, Chris Brogan, Dave Kerpen, Jay Baer… need I say more? I'll see you there!!!
The Social Media Strategies Summit 2013 - February 5 – 7, 2013, Las Vegas, Nevada; April 23 – 24, 2013, Chicago, Illinois; June 12 – 13, New York City, New York
The Social Media Strategies Summit is a conference that offers a unique combination of keynotes, workshops, case studies, proven strategies, and networking – all revolving around social media and how your business can better leverage it. In the Las Vegas event alone case studies demonstrating analytically proven successes will be presented by top brands – including presentations from CNN, Coca Cola, Boston Celtics, American Airlines, NCAA, SAP, Redbull, Accenture, USA Swimming, Forbes, Wells Fargo and Cisco.
Social Media World Forum – March 18 – 19, 2013, London, United Kingdom
Similar to the global scope of iStrategy, The Social Media World Forum, also known as #SMWF, is another leading social media & digital marketing event that takes place in both Europe (London) and North America (New York City). The event aims to connect marketers, digital brand managers, agencies and social tools and platforms while promoting itself t is a showcase of best practice in social media marketing strategies. Running in London and New York, #SWMF covers many key areas of social media strategy and focuses on how brands are using social media as a marketing tool, delivering the latest tips and techniques, innovation strategies and best practice solutions. The diverse speaker's list for London include representatives from global organizations such as Sony, SAP, BBC, KLM, Audi and UNICEF.
Now it's your turn to chime in: Have you been to any of the above events? Which ones are you the biggest fan of? Which invaluable ones did I miss?

For folks working in, around, with the healthcare industry I strongly recommend attending the Mayo-Ragan Social Media Summit, usually held in October. And say what you might about Rochester, Minnesota but if you have gluten sensitivities, there's amazing food to be found there!
Thanks for making this list!
However, I would add www.doctors20.com, Doctors2.0 & You, the European conference on internet and social media use in healthcare (and much more like e- and m-health start-ups), that is held in Paris, France on June 6-7, 2013. See you there!
Hands down, Social Slam in Knoxville is the BEST conference I've been to in the SouthEast. You can't beat the talent especially for the price of the ticket.
Excellent list, Neal! I look forward to seeing you in action at SME's new event in San Diego this April: Social Media Marketing World event. Should be lots of fun!
You did mention, answering an earlier comment, that there will be more and more social media conferences in niches, or vertical industries. It is certainly the case in tourism & hospitality, my field of passion and expertise. A few conferences not-to-be missed:
Social Media Strategies for Travel, in San Francisco, March 18-19, 2013.
TBEX 2013, in Toronto (Canada), June 1-2, 2013.
E-tourism Summit, in San Francisco, October 9-10, 2013.
Of course, there are many others, but I believe these are three good ones that ought to be in any travel marketer's list for any given year, if you are interested in social media and e-tourism.
Cheers from Quebec City,
Neil you missed off my event :( - The Virtual Community Summit 2013 - in London on the 7th February.
Great list, Neal. We're hoping, here at Social Media Today, to add to this list later in the year.... more to come.
This mis a great list and I'd like to thank all the previous contributors to this list, for making it even more informative.
Recently i read a great post on the future of social media and its impact in 2013:
and I hope to hear more about social media updates and developments on the most recent conferences.
Again thanks for the great list.
Thanks for including us in your list Neil and thanks for mentioning TBEX Frederic (another BlogWorld event).
Thank you Neal for this overview. let's see to which conference I can make it. which event is the best one in Europe?
Hi Neal. Thanks for the post. Here's another good one for the list. Social Business Summit 2013 will include seven one-day events and will focus on global brands and social marketing optimization. Anyone can request an invite or suggest a speaker at the site below. Hope you can participate.

Hi Neal,
Can you recommend any conferences that focus on building employer/recruiting brand?
Can I suggest Oi Conference - http://oiconf.com/ It started last year and has grown pretty quickly.It opporunity for local social media pros to network to.
What % of the iStrategy conference would you say is dedicated to Social Media? I am considering attending and it would be helpful to know how much of the conference covers social?
Hi Neal - Quick question - if you had to pick between Corporate Social Summit or the Social Strategies Summit in NYC (both June 12-13), which would you recommend?
Also - for anyone in the foodservice industry - the Foodservice Social Media Universe (FSMU) is great! Will be in Austin, TX in September - http://fohbohfsmu.eventbrite.com/
I agree with Kristen, you're missing Social Slam! Awesome speakers for only $99. John Jantsch of Duct Tape Marketing,Xan Pearson of the Chicago Bulls and the Chicago White Sox, Rick Wion of McDonald's. Unfortunately, VIP tickets are all sold out but you can still get regular tickets.
Hi Neal, many thanks for the post. I understand that most of the abovementioned events take place in the US, however, if any you is willing to travel across the Atlantic, here is an interesting one: ICEEfest (http://tiny.cc/e466tw), which will take in Bucharest on June 6-9, 2013 and will be centered thematically, among others, around the following thematic pillars: "Digital Publishing & Digital Advertising", "Content Marketing & Social Media" & "Start-Ups & Innovation", With top-notch speakers from all over the globw, it's definitely worth checking it out.
I would like to recommend my event called Marketing Festival in Brno, Czech Republic.
It will be one of the biggest online marketing conferences in all Europe. More than 1000 attendees. 22 world-class speakers from all around the world. People from MozCon, Distilled, Kissmetrics, Google,Ask.fm, ... 10 workshops. Afterparties, Concerts.

John Krygier pointed us to Hopeworks, a program in Camden, NJ whose mission includes reducing the dropout rate and to create hope for the future. They attempt to do this by engaging students through web and GIS services. The site is impressive and the concept is great.
They also have a position open for their GIS Director, a great GIS and society position for those interested.
The NY Times online posted a new article on Google Maps mash-ups. For those of you still not really sure about what the Google Maps phenomenon is all about, it's a good introduction and mentions some cool sites.

If you think it's ambitious to map the entire earth, check out the Sloan Digital Sky Survey According to their website: "the Sloan Digital Sky Survey is the most ambitious astronomical survey project ever undertaken. The survey will map in detail one-quarter of the entire sky, determining the positions and absolute brightnesses of more than 100 million celestial objects. It will also measure the distances to more than a million galaxies and quasars."
They have already made quite a lot of progress, and their SkyServer offers all kinds of images and other data, and other cool tools for just exploring their data or for school and research projects
A website called Postini has maps that show the sources for spam, virus, and directory harvest attack activity (based on originating IP) for the past 24 hours.

Glenn over at GISUser spoke with Bob Samborski, Executive President of GITA, on the DOL funding workforce readiness. Mr Samborski outlined 5 key steps for conducting this study.
"1. Getting a grip on understanding geospatial and defining it
2. Communication and public outreach – this approach will serve to identify what kinds of skills are needed for professionals. A number of partners will be used to help secure feedback and communication.
3. Development of a web-based portal to access curricula information. This will also serve to help explain and communicate to academia what they need to be teaching to better prepare students for careers in geospatial technologies.
4. Use the portal as a live test site. This will involve a live pilot project with a goal of replicating the effort based on the outcome.
5. Making the project results sustainable."

The writing frenzy has ended for now, so on to the promised widget. The widget is for use with Konfabulator/Yahoo! Widgets (which must be installed before trying to use this widget). The WebMap widget allows you to search on an address to find a location and choose from existing map services, or a custom map service that you provide (widget preferences are accessed through a right click on the interface). The interface is very minimalistic with buttons to control pan and zoom functionality (for full details please read the README included). While this was my brain child, most of the work was done by Nate and Andrew (right click and choose about). This is the opening salvo, but there are more ideas waiting to be implemented.
Let me know what you think. Also, to find more OGC compliant WebMapServices to use in the widget head over to Mapdex to search.

GeoRSS seeks to go beyond the x,y point location tag that currently exists in RSS 2 and leverage GML to support more complex geometry (lines and polygons). The overview sounds good with key ideas, such as linking related point entries into a line (their example was a kayak trip). They even seem to be attempting to implement a form of topology, but I may be reading too much into the document.

There is a Konfabulator/Yahoo! Widgets widget that uses www.maporama.com. I had a couple of the undergrads at the lab whip up a map service based widget back in July, but they didn't accept it to that gallery due to one of the map services we were pointing to being down. That version is specific to work, but I will edit in the next couple of days and post it without the work logo and not centered on Morgantown. Look for it Tuesday night or Wednesday after I finish my write-a-thon.
Until then check out this widget at Konfabulator – Gallery – Map-o-Rama!

When I'm not home I need a non-flexible door (11" wide by 15" high) to cover my pet door from sundown to sunup. I live where both my pets and small wild creatures reside, i.e. Skunks, Raccoons, and Possums co-exists. When I'm going to be late getting home or go away for a weekend I only have two choices…lock my pet in the house or lock my pet outside. My pet could have freedom during the day if there was a way I could lock/unlock the pet opening with a timer. No I can not use the collars that work with magnets, lasers, or chips because I have to many pets. I found an automatic shade that might be adapted but the cost was $300.00. Could any of you woodworkers advise me how to go about building this on my own. Maybe runners on both sides of the pet door for the solid door to slide up and down, stops at the top & bottom. Would I need two motors, one for up and one for down? What kind of motors? timers? pulley?

Mohawks Request Border Security Funding
Jul 23, 2004 — The maze of islands and St. Lawrence River channels along the St. Regis Reservation near Massena have given the Akwesasne Mohawk community a reputation for smuggling. In the 30s, alcohol came across a mostly porous border with Canada by boat and automobile. In the 1990s the contraband was cigarettes. Around 2000, it was illegal aliens. Today, smugglers favor hydroponic marijuana from Canada. Mohawk tribal police work closely with law enforcement in the U.S. and Canada to stem the tide of illegal border crossings. Yet the tribal police receive no money from Washington for their efforts - even as border security funding rises in response to international terrorism. As David Sommerstein reports, Mohawk chiefs are trying to change that. Go to full article

Heroin Makes Painful Inroads in North Country
by Brian Mann
Feb 20, 2004 — Heroin abuse is making a comeback in New York State. In many parts of the North Country, its popularity has eclipsed cocaine and crack.

St. Lawrence Smuggling Update

Nice moderate use of hops and head that disipitates. Brown/amber. Unique in It didn't seem like 11%. Malt and alcohol winter warmer. Hint of orange citrus Not so positive: somewhat syrupy,Somewhat dry and bitter aftertaste.
Over 6 years later, aged bottle, came out great. Complex, good aromas, good mouthfeel..

This is one of my favorite barleywines (granted I've only tried about 30 and still have a lot more to try) and I always enjoy drinking this stuff.
The appearance was a nice deep red color that was very clear. There was a small amount of white head but thats alright. The taste was pretty complex. I tasted a moderate amount of hop bitterness with a sweet dark malt background. There was a tiny bit spice that people keep mentioning but what I really noticed was the fruitiness. Its really a good flavor for a barleywine.
I really enjoy this stuff but I wish it was more accessible.

Thanks to silverX for sending me this one!
Best by 11/8/15.
Pours a slightly murky iced tea color with a 2 inch puffy tan head that settles to a film on the top of the beer. Small chunks of foam dot the glass on the drink down. Smell is of toasted malt, brown sugar, toffee, candied fruit, and citrus zest. Taste is of toasted malt, biscuit/bread, brown sugar/toffee, dark fruit, citrus zest, and alcohol. There is a medium level of bitterness after each sip along with an alcohol warmth in the back of the throat. This beer has a lower level of carbonation with a smooth mouthfeel. Overall, this is a good barleywine that I can see aging into something awesome. However, it is drinking just fine at the moment and I am glad I was able to try a bottle of this one.

Reviewed from notes. Bottle was 9 months old.
Pours a moderate copper brown with a very alight head that quickly receded. Nose brought sweet dark fruits, caramel, and a bit of citrus. Taste was mostly sweet malt with some booze. Mild fruit throughout. No specifics really detectable. Medium body and a bit boozy. Drinks pretty well at this age bit it could definitely use a bit longer.

A: The beer is clear dark amber in color and poured with a finger high creamy beige head that quickly faded away. A light amount of carbonation is visible from the rising bubbles.
S: There are aromas of citrus and spicy hops in the nose, along with some notes of alcohol and dark fruits.
T: The overall taste is dominated by malty flavors that have a light amount of sweetness, although these are balanced to some degree by some hop bitterness. There also are some notes of dark fruits and hints of alcohol.
M: It feels full-bodied, creamy and smooth on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation. The alcohol lends some warming sensations in the finish.
D: Considering its strength, this beer isn't that difficult to drink because most of the alcohol is masked from the taste.

Burnished cherry-orange-bronze with a soft, warm glow that I hope will be reprised in my belly in a few short minutes. The thick, milkshake creamy head of pale caramel brown looks like it won't be departing any time soon. Likewise, the pocked sheets of lace currently coating the glass are in it for the long haul. Nothing about the appearance says 'special', but Old Ho is still a looker.
Although the nose is primarily rich and malty, there's no shortage of fruit and hops. Since this bottle hasn't yet celebrated its first birthday, I had hoped that it would be wall-to-wall hoppy. If the nose is any indication, it isn't. There's very little alcohol in the aroma; amazing for such a relatively young 11%'er.
Old Horizontal is a very good barleywine. Having said that, I fully expect to have better. The granite sturdy malt backbone is the obvious focal point, just like in the nose. The beer tastes like caramel-drizzled, raisin and cherry-studded, dark rum-soaked clafouti. It isn't overly sweet, but neither is it overly bitter. How about... balanced.
There's a little too much unintegrated alcohol for me, an indication of a still tempestuous youth. It's an age-old dilemma: the excitement of a young ho versus the experience of an old ho (are we still talking about beer?) Cellaring it in order to mellow the alcohol, however, would bring about an unacceptable further diminishment of the hops. The obvious solution is to add more hops on the front end. Victory, are you listening?
The mouthfeel isn't all that sticky or thick, but it is full of rounded, silky smooth edges and goes down like a dream. One isn't limited to sipping, as with some high-ABV beer. However, the alcohol has a tendency to yank on the reins with authority if things get out of hand.
For some reason (reputation probably) I expected Old Horizontal to be a taste bud swamping, syrupy flavor bomb, but that isn't what I'm experiencing. It's undoubtedly good beer and is a good representation of the style, but I'm not tempted to exclaim mightily over the brewer's genious with every sip. Even though it failed to meet my probably unfairly high expectations, it's still a far, far better barleywine than most breweries can manage.

Appearance: Pours a cloudy medium amber body with a small head (despite a hard pour) that shrinks quickly and leaves a few sparks of lace around the glass
Smell: A touch of caramel and maple wafts along with some piney hops
Taste: A rather mild caramel flavor at the start though the hops become quite assertive by the middle; after the swallow, the caramel and rum-soaked raisin flavors build; very balanced in the finish
Mouthfeel: A bit light bodied for a barleywine but with moderate carbonation
Drinkability: Scores well in this category as the brew is well-balanced and nothing is over the top

Bottle: Poured a clear light brown with a small head and very little carbonation. Aroma is very sweet with a subtle touch of alcohol. Taste is bit too sweet (candi sugar-like?) for my liking; I would have preferred a more subtle sweetness (plums). Alcohol gives you a nice warm feeling at the end that I did enjoy very much. Great balance with above average body. Nice one from Victory.

Sometimes mid-summer demands a mid-winter's drink. Thus the Old Horizontal. The beer pours a rich, thick, copper-amber hue with a fair amount of haze. A firm medium-sized head forms and lessens to 1/4 inch then stays true. Sturdy aromas of melanoidin-rich malts, candied fruits, and noticable citrus/pine hop scent. Flavors are quite a bit more intense than the aromas. The malts dominate the brew with a big sweet boost of toffee and caramel. The beer is very estery with mostly cherry flavors, but berries, figs, plumbs, prunes, dates, and grapes lend a hand as well. Sweet licorice, toasty, meaty flavors round out the flavors without getting into cough-syrup flavors. Hops give a deep herbal note along with moderate citrus and pine flavors that time hasn't completely eroded yet. Textures are richly malty giving a full palate and decadent richness. Moderate numbing and warming gives indications of alcohol strength but these attributes aren't as intense as most. The beer has a long sweet finish decorated with toffee and esters-mostly cherries and figs. The beer is immensely enjoyable, even if a bit too sweet and worty at times.

A 2006 vintage bottle that I had in the fridge for a few months. I decided to take it out and use it for a nightcap last night. Allowed to warm up to around fifty degrees before decanting, this twelve ounce bottle was poured into an over sized wine glass. Consumed on 11/06/2008.
The pour was more then decent. A nice hazy, and cloudy ,mixture on this one. A nice reddish tinted light brown is what was immediately apparent in the glass, with a touch of white foam on the top that reached a height of around an inch and a half before finally settling down into a thin covering across the top of the glass.
The aroma was nice and rich. Classic Barley wine here with a nice caramel sugar, toffee and just sweet candy like malt flavors. Some light notes of alcohol, but again nothing that was terribly off. Some light notes of fruit as it started to warm. The flavor was more of the same, though a little plain for my palate on here. Some nice notes of caramel, toffee again, some light fig like fruit flavors as well, but nowhere near the level that I would have expected. Nicely hidden alcohol profile, especially for being around 11%, nice medium feel with a tight carbonation profile that kept it from feeling dull in anyway and that light syrup like thickness that wrapped it all up very well. A smooth sipper, again the alcohol very well hidden, let this one deceptively creep up on you.
Overall not a bad barley wine, admittedly not my favorite, but not bad a at all,. I would have no issues with this one on tap, and cannot wait to have this years come out.

A: The pour is dark amber, perhaps copper, with a finger of off-white head.
S: A surprisingly sharp grapefruit aroma to this one with a lot of floral notes to it as well. Some slight booze, but otherwise a nice malt character. A bit of brown sugar, toffee, and caramel.
T: Some citrus hop notes up front with a mild bitterness, but this is a pretty sweet barleywine. Lots of toffee and brown sugar sweetness with a slight creaminess to it, maybe a bit of molasses.
M: Medium bodied with a medium level of carbonation.
O: A pretty nice barleywine, especially for one that is pretty much always available.

A: single finger off white head with excellent retention on a murky dark amber brown body.
S: overall somewhat light on the nose. grainy, malty, some earthy hops and booze.
T: dark fruits mostly apple, figs. Maltiness is strong and thus provides a terpentine like note.
M: thick body and moderate carbonation.
Overall: A little too strong with the booze. The flavor is pretty complex with the right amount of sweetness. Not bad but again a touch too boozy.

(I'm being told this in an '05 bottle.)
Appearance: Pours a clearish, orangey-brown body with a medium, off-white head.
Smell: Heavy caramel malt aroma with notes of brown sugar, honey, and a spiced tangerine fruitiness.
Taste: Succulent sweet taste of caramel and honey. Hint of brown sugar. Bright tangerine marmalade flavor jumps in. Any hop bitterness has long since faded (now I'm being told it may be a bit older). Boozey, surprisingly fruity finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-full body. Med carbonation. Approaching syrupy.
Drinkability: A lovely barleywine (regardless of how it may or may not be) with a luscious sweetness that only Wilford Brimley could hate.

This barley wine poured out as a deep reddish brown color with some orange highlights. The head was decently sized and lasted a little while giving off a good lacing. The smell of the beer was a booze and sweet sugary combo with a big barley aroma too. The taste is of figs mostly, there may be some yeast and barley in the mix. The finish is a little hoppy and pretty dry. The mouthfeel for this beer is a tad over medium I think and has a balanced feel to it. Overall it's a pretty nice brew for the style and worth looking into.

Pours a reddish/orange with a light wispy head,aroma has a definent hoppiness to it a little piney and slightly nutty.Taste is intense and chewy with some decent fruitiness with a resiny,hoppy hop flavor that comes on real strong in the finish.A real well made beer,but maybe just a tad hoppy for my liking for the style.After drinking a few sips,oddly it seems to become more drinkable.

Served in a Dogfish Head snifter.
Another VDubb recommendation. This one pours a translucent ruby garnet topped by about a finger of ecru foam. The nose comprises orange rind, ruby red grapefruit, rich toffee, spicy cinnamon, graham crackers, and some light flowers. The taste sharpens the fruits and heightens the flowers, creating a decently powerful hop-blast; behind that, the toffee finds a soul mate in the graham crackers and newcomer honey (let's just chalk it up to a stereotypical Mormon situation), and they settle down amidst the hop fields (so many columns...). The body is on the lighter side of heavy, with a light carbonation and a nearly chewy feel. Overall, a very nice American-style b-wine, a healthy sipper to warm up those chilly nights. Word.

A - Poured out a cloudy, copper/burgandy color with a small, creamy, tan head. It left soapy lace on the glass.
S - It smelled very malty and sweet. There was also a floral hop aroma.
T - It tasted of sweet malt and caramel. It had biscuity qualities and some grassy/earthy elements.
M - It was heavy bodied but soft and smooth on the tongue.
D - This is a very good barleywine. It wasn't overdone or to powerful.

Appearance: 12 oz bottle received from dyan about 4 months back. Into an 8 oz clear plastic water cup, I'm crunkin this bitch up ghetto style dogg. The beer pours a hazy dark brown with a solid tan head that retains well, lace clinging to the sides of the cup.
Smell: Tons of malty sweetness, molasses, butterscotch, fruit cake, etc - smells like a barleywine.
Taste & mouthfeel: Rich caramel malt and fruitcake up front, some pleasant undertones of toast and nuts along with a hint of fusels. The mouthfeel is big and chewy, appropriate for the style, and sweet from start to finish. There's a moderate hop bitterness, but age has mellowed this beer quite a bit. Pleasant stuff all in all, not my favorite style by any means but I enjoyed it all the same.
