Keg at Popeye, Tokyo (15%). Clear mahogany colour, minimal head. Deep caramel and port dominates the nose. Sweet with full body and rounded mouthfeel. Vastly malty with layer upon layer of port soaked caramel, sprinkled with sugar. Warming, mellow finish. Complex and pleasant.

Hmmm, I am not sure if this is the one I tried at Tadg’s last night as it was listed as the Meltin Barleywine but since KyotoLefty left his review here I will do the same. For 14% ABV it was exceptionally drinkable and I decided to have 2-not a good idea as this packs a punch! A very dark brown color with a complex taste. Malty & warming. I enjoyed this beer a bit too much!

Draught at TAdg’s. Jammy nose, licorice, ume, raisins, great fruits. Dark brown with crimson tints, flat. Flavors of chocolate, caramel, plum, raisins, great tanginess. Still needs time imo, though very interesting and great fruit.
