Bottle from local bottle shop. Aroma is roasted dark malt, caramel, candied dried fruits, apple syrup, berries, coffee, toffee fruit liqueur, liquorice, some warming alcohol. Flavour is quite sweet, light bitter and bit boozy. Body is full with a fairly sticky mouthfeel. Interesting, pretty aromatic, but sweet and boozy like a liqueur. Bit rouch around the edges, like most Eanske.

330ml bottle from trade with Benzai. Many thanks! Pours deep brown with medium tan head. Aroma is big caramel, rich hop. Taste is super rich, syrupy sweet barley wine. Quite boozy with lots of ripened concentrated fruits, and took me a while to finish.

zwart met bruine kraag. aroma van geroosterde mout, graan en chocolade. Smaken zijn wat geroosterd, marshmallow, vanille, redelijk zoet, scherp, alcoholisch, pepertje, stevig, iets van rode bessen, fruitzuur, geen typische barley wine. --- Beer merged from original tick of Big Fat Bad Ass Beer Geek Barley Wine on 15 May 2018 at 15:58 - Score: 7

Bottle at home. Very dark brown with big thick light brown head. Chocolate, lots of red berries, black berries, berry jam, toffee. Strong alcohol. Almost like berry liquor with some chocolate. Very sweet with alcoholic and herbal bitterness. Full bodied. Stupid crazy beer, not bad though.

Bottle from het Biermoment, bottled 08 2016, 33 cl sample. Dark copper color, medium frothy head, which diminishes to leave fair amount of lacing. Mainly burned caramel, appelstroop and a hint of roast. Pretty thick in body, lots of sweetness and malty bitterness. Appelstroop once again. Its basicly appelstroop in a bottle. I must admit, although several prople speak highly of Eanskes brewer, I think his creations are utter crap usually, scoring in the low ends of my rating lists. This one is pretty nice actually, although ofcourse balance is lacking. But Im still enjoying this one, and thats whats its all about in the end.

Bottle at home celebrating satan. Black with tan head. Big sweet roasted choc, molasses and barley. Light boozy, nutty and dark fruity notes. Over medium sweet and light bitter. Big sweet body with low carbonation. Roasty bittersweet finish. --- Beer merged from original tick of Big Fat Bad Ass Beer Geek Barley Wine on 09 Jan 2018 at 09:40 - Score: 7
