Oct 19, 2008 Bottle from De Bierkoning, @ home. Cloudy reddish brown colour, creamy diminishing off-white head. Aroma of alcohol and lots of dark fruits. Flavour is chocolate, caramel, dark fruits, malts and alcohol. Alcoholic and sweet finish. Not as fullbodied as expected, but a nice sipper nevertheless.

Aug 25, 2009 A very strong barley wine better left to age a bit to take off the alcohol kick a bit. Solid BW, but not my favorite.

Aug 20, 2009 Bottled 355ml. Appearance: Hazy dark ruby with a small light beige head. The aroma is mainly of molasses, a huge amount of sour apples, acetone, wax, marzipan and raisin. Malt accentuated. Flavor and palate: Sweet malty taste. Very low bitterness. Alcoholic. Buttery. Mediocre malty finish which is reminiscent of raisin. Overall impression: A very poor barley wine.

Kinda creamy syrupy. Some warmth, not as I'd think 10.5 would be. Thinner than alot of BW. Not bad but not a winnwer either
