Bottled, LCRBM. Pleasant and strong malty, fruity aroma. Hazy, brown color, small off-white head, fair lace. Sweet, fruity and lots of hops. A heavy beer yet still very drinkable.

[2nd Low Countries RateBeer meeting] Aroma of malts, sherry and fruits. Aroma is quite good. Hazy brown coloured with no head. Taste is sweet, siruppy-malty, fruity and some alcohol. Sticky finish.

Copper with some orange and a nice fine particled head. Aroma is sweet fruit and caramel malt. The flavor is slightly nutty but mostly sweet caramel. Syrupy body but not overly full. Overall a decent barley wine.
