An English style Barley Wine that has had truckloads of raspberries and a touch of vanilla added, and then has been lightly oaked. Fruity and smooth but with a sturdy malt backbone.

Can. Hazy amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Smooth and slightly thin malts, a little thin caramel and cream. Jammy fruits, a little dry spice. Bitterish mid into tangy tangerine peel. Some raspberry pips in the aftertaste. Bitterish linger. Curious barleywine. Seems like a strong fruit beer.

Hazy red, fruity aroma. Taste is fruit, not, a little chocolate and a bit if boozy warmth. Big, fruity and rich. Very nice.

Draft. An amber beer with a beige head. The aroma has notes of chocolate, caramel, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of toffee, malt, and alcohol, leading to a dry finish.

On keg at Brewdog Lothian Rd (backlog - 11/03/19). Appearance - deep amber to orange. Some lacing. Nose - marmalade and toast. Then raspberries. Taste - more marmalade and raspberry. Seville orange and bread. Palate - medium to full bodied, creamy yet tangy texture. Dry-ish tangy finish. Overall - good. A bit confused but good.

Fierce and tiny essentials with raspberry and vanilla. Poured up on tap at Mother Kelly's Bethnal Green where it exhibits a murky mahogany colored body that supports a thin off white head of foam. The aroma offers up smooth vanilla mixed with tangy fruity raspberries and then sweet malt rich malts. The taste delivers smooth sweet tangy raspberry and mild earthy chocolate notes. This creates a terrific blend of smooth sipper friendly notes.
