500ml bottle at share. Dark brown PO r with a ring of beige foamy head. Aroma is sweet roasty malts. Taste follows with more roasty malt sweetness, notes of chocolate, but lost against a sea of open RIS bottles.

[2022-08-07] Flaska från 2022, 13,5%. Mörk, lite murken kastanjebrun med liten ljusbeige krona. Smakar som ett glas höst. Stor sötma, kolaremmar, johannesbröd, rostat socker. Stor kropp, fat, bra hetta. Rejält med sötma, drar nästan åt en sherry. Smuttvänligt. #lastone [9/4/9/4/17=4,3] [2022-10-08] Flaska från 2018, 13,5%. Kastanjebrun med en gnutta vitbeige krona. Smakar och doftar av bränt socker, Bourbon, fat, kolaremma, blöta höstlöv, kastanj. Mycket gott och snyggt. Betyget samma för denna. [9/4/9/4/17=4,3]

Bottle @ Mr Orla Going Barley, Ratebeer Odense. Hazy chestnut with a tiny off-white head. Malty aroma of toffee and biscuit with nuts and dried fruit. Sweet malty and fruity flavour with prunes and dessert wine.

Thanks to Aaron for the hand delivered bottle just because I hooked him up with some BCBS in Casper.
Pours a hazy to cloudy deep brown colour ala a Thomas Hardy Ale. Small and then no head of foam, no lacing.
Huge caramel malt and dark fruits in the smell with port like notes. Got all of that immediately following removing the waxed cap. That. .got me all excited.
How is the taste, Bitterbill? Exactly like what the smell indicated. Caramel malt that is sweet but not overly so. Dark pitted fruit and that unmistakable taste of Port as in a properly cellared Thomas Hardy. I reckon that this is THE closest to That wonderful elixir the US has to offer.
Sticky full mouthfeel with the gentlest carbonation.
This is absolutely fabulous. Amazing. Incredible.
Easily makes it to my top 5 beers ever. Maybe even number 1. I’ll decide that when I am finished.
Oh yeah, there’s some definite heat to this baby but it is part of the beauty.

On tap at the brewpub. Hazy amber brown beer. Low carbonation. Sweet thick barleywine with hints of vanilla wood. Very smooth indeed. Dangerously easy drinking!
