Oct 1, 2007 (Bottle 33 cl) Courtesy of joergen. Clear, dark amber golden with a small, beige head. Vinous aroma of dried and overripe fruit. Quite full-bodied with sweet notes of dried fruit, a touch of prunes I believe and a somewhat chocolatey finish. Nice but not overly spectacular. Probably will improve with age. 280907

Sep 10, 2007 Dark brown color; creamy head. Confusing aroma, with some malt, apples, vanilla, bubblegum; it’s even a bit cheesy. Good body structure, sweet and almost sticky; it flows silky on the tongue, leaving a caramel track that becomes more and more defined, turning into some roasted malt and dark chocolate too; there is also a light liquorice. At the end the bitterness level is correct, maybe with too much alcohol. Not listed as Barley Wine in my personal database, as I don’t fancy too much the delicate roasted malt / dark chocolate aftertaste; it’s still a good relaxation beer, even if not too complex.
