Mar 23, 2007 Not nearly as strong tasting a I had anticipated. Beautiful amber brew with a sweet, malty, berry taste. Somewhat syrupy on the palate with perfect carbonation. Very good.

Mar 13, 2007 I did not realize this was suppose to be a Barley Wine. Tastes more like a strong Scottish ale. Malty without being too sweet. Some dried dark fruit. Slightly woody with hints of smoke in the finish. Very smooth. Overall pretty decent but the mouthfeel was a tad watery. ABV well hidden.

Mar 5, 2007 Updated: Aug 11, 2007My skull wasn’t split but this is a nice example of a Scottish Ale. Bought this at Kensington Wine Market here in Calgary. Page 347 of Michael Jackson’s Great Beer Guide and only 303 0f his 500 Classic Brews to go.
