Commercial Description:
An epic barleywine, made in the tradition of British Farmhouse Brewing. Lavished with a velvety blend of six different malts this is a warming beer with a lush mouthfeel. The complexities your discriminating palate will detect are ever changing as this barleywine matures. When young, an assertive hop character predominates and with age the beauty of the big malt balance unfolds.

2004 Vintage, Pours dark copper to muddy brown in color and quite cloudy. Sweet malt aromas of caramel, white grapes, prunes and over ripe berries. Tastes of sweet maltiness with a warm alcohol kick. Mouthfeel is thinner than I expected and I cannot discern any hop flavors, both probably due to age. A nicely aged barley wine that I would definitely hope to try fresh as well.

(Bottle 65 cl) Courtesy of Kramer17801. Slightly hazy, dark amber with a white, creamy head. Aroma of citrus and overripe fruit. Medium body with sweetish accents of caramel and then a dry finish without much bitterness. A middle-of-the-road Barley Wine. 060407

For some reason the perfume-like flavors strike me as lavender-tasting in a pool of hops, caramel malt and floral bouquet flavors. The body seems well structured. The bitter hoppy nature I associate with this brand is here.

Bottle. Hazy amber. Sweet caramel, flowery and hoppy aroma, which also appear in the flavour with more bitter hops and plenty of alcohol. Bitter dry finish.

Bottle. Amber colour with a beige head. Floral, pine, peach, hop aroma and taste, dry. Medium body with a sweet light dry hoppy finish. More like a IPA/IIPA.
