250ml bottle [#01618]. Cloudy, dark amber colour with a thin layer of beige bubbles. Slightly smoky, spicy, and sweet-ish malty aroma, notes of plum wine, sherry, hints of peat, marmite. a touch of blue mold cheese. Taste is sweet malty, peaty, slightly yeasty spicy, notes of plum wine, sherry, hints of peat with a cardboard touch, a marmite touch, hoppy counterpart struggles to fight the sweetness. Warming, alcoholic finish; oily to viscous texture, slightly sticky palate. Too sweet, but a nice, original sipper.

Aus der Flasche (bottled 21.11.2014/bbe 21.11.2039) im 2016-11 getrunken. Dies hebt sich deutlich durch seine japanische Sake-Hefe ab und kann doch mit klassischen Noten dieses Stiles überzeugen. Ein sehr edles Teil. 10/4/9/5/19 Aus der Flasche (bottled 21.11.2014/bbe 21.11.2039) im 2022-05 getrunken. Wie bei der 2.Edition ist auf dieses Ale deutlich über seinen bbe und wahrscheinlich auch hier hat die Sake Hefe eine metallische, fast schon an Seife-artiges Aroma gebildet, die hier zwar nicht so dominant ist. So bleib diese sonst so wunderbare Barley Wine immer noch ein gutes Ale. 7/4/8/5/10

Shared BOTTLE 25 CL. Hazy amber, almost no head. Big fruit upfront, then goes old smelly cheese and a good deal of band aid. The taste is much sweeter, creamy malts, hints of band aid and burnt paper. Bit of grassy hops - just a bit. Interesting. And overpriced.

Bottle. Red brown color. Aroma has caramelised malt, raisin, mild pine and ripe fruit. Rich taste of caramelised malt, ripe fruit, spicey yeast and a little cardboard unfortunately, seems a bit carbonated. Still nice, special and creative.

250 ml bottle. Pours a murky brown with dark floaties and little head. Aromas of brown sugar, bacon, and old malts. Flavors of same tending towards burnt meat and burnt sugar. Not a fan. Maybe too old.

Komeassa boksissa on erilliseen punaiseen paperiin käärittynä pieni pullo, jonka sisältö ei juurikaan vaahtoa lasiin kaadettaessa. Väriltään olut on melko keskiruskea, aavistuksen punertava. Lähes kirkas. Tuoksu alkoholinen, luumuinen, maltaisen toffeinen ja hiivainen. Maku luumuinen, toffeisen makea ja hieman alkoholinen ja konjakkimainen ennen kaikkea jälkimaultaan. Melko täyteläinen suutuntuma, hiilihappoja vähänlaisesti. Ei tästä eroa löydä kakkosversioon, kun ei maistele rinnakkain.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Naama’s place. Thanks Naama. Orange. Aroma is malty, fruity, a bit spicy, with caramel, a bit of alcohol. Sweet flavor, kinda boozy, with malt, caramel, toasty note, fruitiness, spicy note, bitter stale hops. Rounded mouthfeel, slick but boozy.

250ml bottle brought back from Japan. Pours out a dark golden topped with a small white head. Nose is floral notes sweetness and some booze. Taste is more of the sweetness earth tones and some more of the floral notes.
