This barley wine poured looking like apple cider. Minimal creamy, tan colour head. Minimal lacing. Scents include caramel, paint thinner, ripe fruit,… fermented fruit juice really. First swig had minimal carbonation with flavours of licorice, ripe fruit, cider, alcohol and burnt toffee. Finish is mildly bitter with heavy fermentation flavours lingering.
