 harrisoni (5605), Ashford, Kent, England
Dec 27, 2008 Bottle at the brewery. Hazy old gold, thin beige head. Tripely barley wine. Sweet coating of the teeth. Bit of nougat/honey/sweet nut maybe. I quite like it. Alcohol is a little obvious. But I like the sweetness.
MesandSim (4723), Highgate, Greater London, England
Dec 14, 2008 A Mes rate. Bottle at the brewery. Semi hazy yellow with a thin white head. Sweet and sugary with lots of honey. Actually it tastes for all the world like there has been some mead added. Far to sweet and sickly with a thick and sticky mouth feel.

Dec 11, 2008 Bottle, 9.8%. Nice vinous aroma, some light malts. Spicy, anis and clove. Cloudy yellow colour, some floaties. Sweet flavour, quite citric. Lemony citrus notes. Might be infected, but tastes OK.
