Commercial Description:
A Wheatwine Style Ale.

In early 14th Century England, Sir William of Wykeham began a tradition to assist wayfarers on holy pilgrimages. Travelers would go to the Hospital of St. Cross in Winchester for a free ration, or "dole", of bread and ale. This became known as the "Pilgrim's Dole".

An amber beer with a disappearing orange head. The aroma is sweet with notes of caramel and alcohol. The flavor quite dry with hops and lots of alcohol. I like the concept Wheatwine.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of boboski. Slightly hazy amber golden with an off-white head. Fat aroma of caramel and overripe fruit. Full-bodied, sweetish caramel and again overripe fruit. Some bitterness in the finish. Classical American Barley Wine without being stunningly interesting. 180807

Bottled at Monk’s Café Wallingatan, Stockholm. Clear brownish amber, no head. Aroma of wheat bread with a touch of grapefruit. Malty and chewy, full bodied yet pleasantly dry. Lovely mix of wheat bread and caramel powdered with slight orangehops. Mildly warming finish with slight salty bitterness. An elegant beer with lovely balance.

Bottle, 10%. Good fruity aroma, dried fruit, apricot. Cloudy dark orange colour. Small, soft, creamy head. The flavour is nicely fruity, creamy, quite bitter and with some alcohol. The mouthfeel is almost slimy, but OK.

Amber. Vibrant colour with a slight chill haze. Sweet, caramel and canned mushroom aroma. Some earthiness and a little bit boozy. Very sweet. Total caramel. Very syrupy. Not my thing at all.

Bottle at Monk’s Café, Wallingatan
Amber color with red hue; medium head. Aroma of sweet caramel, vanilla, Bourbon, alcohol. Medium body strength, strong caramel flavor, vanilla, but not well combined; a bit too bitter, and, mostly, a rather unpleasant sweet liquorice finish. Not convincing.
