Our friends at the Parkway Tavern (recently reviewed by the crack Volcano staff as having the best chilli in town) are hosting a barley wine festival on April 8 from noon into the late night.  Sixteen barley wines will be featured.  Despite its name, a Barley wine is very much a beer, albeit a very strong and often intense beer.  In fact, it's one of the strongest of the beer styles. - Jason de Paul.
