Old notes from 09-07-14. 330ml bottle, ABV 9.4. Pours a light brown with a off white foamy head. Aromas & tastes of grapes, figs, dates, candy, caramel, touch of cinnamon & very present strong alcohol. Might be very well made, but lost on me as I think this is one of my least favourite styles of beer.

Draft. Pours deep read w/little head. I didn’t find the alcohol as strong as some others and pretty drinkable for a barley wine - danger!

Bottle shared at Monyo. Pours copper with white head. It’s somewhere between a traditional, English style BW and a more modern, American iteration of the style: it’s as malty and herbaly hoppy as the first, but shows the bitterness and resinous hoppy character (mainly in the finish) of the latter. Medium bodied with low to normal carbonation.

It is a really good beverage. The taste is malty, caramel, plum, cynamon, hop, powerful taste and well balanced with the alcohol. 02.11.2016, drinking it at Lausanne, Prélaz.
gave a cheers!

09-2018 Aromat słodki, słodowy, miód karmel, babka piaskowa, przyprawy, chmiel. Nagazowanie duże. Ładna beżowa piana, klarowne o koloru herbaty. Smak bardzo dobrze wyczuwalna słodowość przełamana wyraźną chmielowością. Poza tym wyczuwalne chlebowe nuty. Gumowate pełne, ale gładkie, nie czuć alkoholu, finisz goryczkowy. Ogólnie przyjemne się to pije

Pours a dark amber ale with a modest head. Complex aroma of malts, caramel, toffee, sweet dried fruits, toffee, leavy and herbal-ish hops, some marzipan. Flavour is medium sweet with a moderate hoppy bitter finish. Body is medium to full. An absolutely delicious beer to sip on after a large meal. Most likely it will be better then the meal itself. One of the best Barley Wines I’ve had and a true treat of a beer.

Bottiglia. All'olfatto si esprimono sentori di sottobosco. L'intensità olfattiva è elevata e il modo in cui permane è sufficiente. Il mantello birroso superiore resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido si presenta velato. Il colore è ambrato rossiccio carico tendente marrone. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è medio. La forza gustativa è elevata e la persistenza è buona. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il retrogusto è intenso. Sul palato si fermano note di caramello, miele, cracker, frutta secca, agrumi, pompelmo, arancia rossa, mango, frutta tropicale, frutta passita, uvetta bagnata nel rum, mandorla fresca, vaniglia, legnoso e creme caramel. Alcol presente.

Аромат умеренно сладкий, есть легкая бочка как будто, слива спелая, легкие специи в стиле. Цвет темный но не черныйЮ пены почти нету, быстро падает. Вкус хороший, такие же нотки барлика сладкие, немного сливы, специи в стиле, солодовость. Сладость умеренная, алкоголь есть на финише.

(Bottle 20,1 cl) Copper coloured, slightly hazy from impurities, almost no head. Extremely fullbodied with an avundance of flavours that almost "explodes" in the mouth. Malty sweetish almost fatty beer with a strong warming alcohol. Comes in a neat 7 ounce bottle "perfect for sipping". 3.6
