xvz (3), stgo, Chile does not count Jun 6, 2008 Deep copper color and crystalline, high-viscosity, low carbonation and slightly head, scent Confit orange, homemade flan with caramel, slightly liquor. Very good off between sweetness and bitterness. The palate and the aftertaste is winy and reminds me the single malt whisky, good beer.- davidpl (416), Santiago, Chile Apr 27, 2008 Appearance: amber copper color. Not head.
Aroma: caramel malts, butterscotch ,nuts, red-raisins, red-apples, oranges and dried-peaches. Liquory smells like old rum.
Flavor: sweet start mainly from caramel malts. The sweetness is quickly balanced for the alcoholic level. Nuts, butterscotch, almond, candy oranges, dried-peaches and raisins reminiscences. Warming final, with old rum and whisky. Malty aftertaste.
Palate: medium to full body. Low carbonation.
Remark: Surprisingly a nice Chilean barley wine, with some semi-complexity and good fruity notes.
