Oddly listed as a Barley Wine at Popeye’s, seems like a Scotch Barley Wine. Pours a dark brown reddish color with a small white head. A big hot sweet nose. The flavor is light banana, lots of sugars, light heat. Pretty smooth. Toffee.

Honey and bread, caramel. Some tanines. Very foresty fruity taste with bitterness and honey sweetness. More honey and some spicyness in the finish with a full body. Very good.

Tap at Popeye. Reddish-amber, glowing, cloudy, with a fine, thick head. Nose if chocolate, caramel, esters. Thick, rich flavor, peaches, minerals, ruch full body. On its way, but still not perfect.
