Leggy, translucent brown sample at the roost. Ring of beige head. Nose is weird... huge baking spice, cinnamon and nutmeg, big caramel and treacle, cocoa. Not fully identifiable as a barleywine. Flavor has black pepper and cinnamon, nutmeg, booze, malt, caramel and cocoa. Definitely not a big stout base, but the adjuncts outside of the spices don't leave you feeling barleywine either. Finish is very spicy and peppery. Full bodied and sticky. Lots happening. 8 7 7 8 7.5
