Commercial Description:
Big malty flavors, including licorice and chocolate, are balanced with a moderate hop profile. Brewed with copious amounts of prized malts and flaked oats, the Barley Wine is so strong that it has to be aged for several months before we can bottle it. Like a fine wine, it will continue to improve with age up to 2 years after bottling (If kept cool).

Thin head, but there is lacing. Medium muddy brown color. Boozy and sweet aromas. Super sweet and chockfull of malts. Some hops, but the malts outweigh. Dark fruit all over the place. Sugary and thick.

12 oz. bottle. Pours deep mahagony / amber color with slightly tan head that is small and vanishes quickly. Very aromatic, with hints of licorice, alcohol, cherry. Tastes indeed like licorice with slight hints of chocolate, still tasting cherries, alcohol detectable. Syrupy. Overall not my favorite barleywine but very good nonetheless.

Cuivrée-rougeâtre avec un pétillement faible et une mousse éphémère. Arômes de malt et de petits fruits rouge. En bouche elle est douce et ronde et très maltée. Laisse un faible arrière gout de malt et d’alcool. Plutôt bien balancée et facile à boire pour une barley wine.

355 ml bottle. Finland. Dark amber colour with medium-size tan head. Sweet caramel, hops, roasted malts and some alcohol in aroma. Warming alcohol in flavour. Soft sweet hoppy flavour with some bitterness. Not much of an aftertaste. Smooth.
