Just found some notes about this one i had at the brewpub when i live in Toronto.
Light caramel color. Served at the perfect temperature. Nose is slightly hoppy, and quite spicy, lots of spices, and a slight wine aroma also. Flavour is quite interesting, again its spicy with some caramel in the background. A nice barley wine. An odd barley wine.....quite spciy.

Cask. Slightly hazy mahogany-brown. Not much head. Very sweet, candyish, thick body, no real complexity, but the malts - sweet as they are, are not so bad.

Draft - Red grape, slight sourness and some apple. Clear caramel with a rich yellowy head. Green grape, apple, caramel and booze. The fruitiness is a bit "young" tasting and mouthfeel is a bit thin.

The first barley wine I’ve had but its quite pleasant. Can’t say much more in the way of comment, except that i will definitely try this one again, as well as other barley wines. Smell is very interesting. On tap at Granite Brewery.

A dark reddish brown ale with a thcik creamy moka head. A nice treacle, molasses and licorice, quite nice. In mouth, a good licorice malt with warming alcohol and treacle. Medium bodied. On tap at the brewpub with Sammy, March 22, 2009.
