Fountain of Endless Life is a 13.5% English-style barleywine aged 16 months in Elijah Craig 10+ year bourbon barrels. Huge vanilla notes from these barrels leap out of your glass and invite you in to savour the complexity. #barleywineislife

Bottle shared at the craft beer junction bermondsey tasting. Many thanks. A thick dark mahogany brown coloured pour with a fading tan head. Aroma is brown sugars, woody barley wine, bourbon, oak, vanilla. Flavour is composed of medium sweet, oily oak, bourbon, vanilla, brown sugars, boozy finish.. Good. .

Team tasting at CBJ, thanks to me for the bottle. No thanks to 3 Moons for 10 mins of wax removal, da fuck? Nearly clear dark amber beer, good bubbly pale tan head. Airy palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Light and pleasant caramel malts, goes well with oak barrel induced vanilla and light wood. Light but rich bourbon soaked fruits. A very mild alcohol spice. Airy finish. A big old bba barleywine but, delivered in a remarkably light palate and, that makes this bloody drinkable.

375ml (thx, Chris S.!) shared with Alex @ Ryan's deck enjoying a finally arrived warm days.
Aroma: a bit oxidized, some dark fruits, a bit meaty. The aroma from the bottle was way better, though, kinda bold, sweet, and nice dark fruits.
Taste: moderately sweet, a bit boozy and meaty, American oak.
Overall: not bad, but quite far from the nice barleywines I've had.

Poured from 375mL bottle. Dark chestnut brown with minimal beige head. Noticeable dose of vanilla without being a vanilla-bomb, bourbon and dark-dried fruits. Enjoyable, balanced.
