Not to mention, ADWTD is indeed an American Barleywine.
My complaint with that one is a similar I have for a lot of barleywines, too damn boozy and sweet for my tastes.

Same here, the barleywines I tend to enjoy are those with a lower finishing gravity. They can still be boozy, but don't taste like you're chugging malt syrup.
Boozy can be fixed with time...

I'm sure you realize that all of the beers you listed are barrel aged. As a matter of fact all of the top 20 English Barleywines on BA are barrel aged.
Maybe 'most craft beer drinkers' just prefer barrel aged barleywines to non-barrel aged variety. Who would have guessed...
Kuhnhenn offers a non- BA Barelywine as well. I believe it too is an American style. But I think there's little doubt that barrel aging simultaneously adds character to Barleywines while providing time for the sharpness to wear down. Again, it's not my favorite style but if I'm gonna do one its going to be bigger and more bold than GR.
I'll take a MOAS with two years on it and call it a night.
I'd also be curious to know how many of the top rated Barleywines are bottle conditioned as GR is (at least was, assume it still is).

GR is a very good barleywine, but IMO its no better than Big Foot which is on shelf 6 months out of the year.
GR> Big foot

Yes, it still is.
And barrel-aged GR comes out this year, hopefully it's even better than regular GR.

Speaking of barrel aged BW's.... And the bruery's mash any good? Almost bought it today but didn't want to buy it without researching

I think Mash is excellent, one of my favorite beers from the bruery.
