Originally brewed on October 25th to commemorate the Charge of the Light Brigade. Don’t be fooled by the strength, this is one easy drinking beer. A rich, sweet barley wine with a heady, alcoholic nose and incredibly complex flavour profile. Brewed since 1994 by appointment to the Queens Royal Lancers. They’re tough enough to sink a few….are you?

Now brewed in January and matured for 11 months to be sold over Christmas and New Year. The prolonged storage provides an extremely drinkable ale for its strength. A strong, dark aromatic and estery barley wine.

Bottle @ White House, Luton. Dark ruby with a small head. Has a read rye character with a strength. There’s some sticky-sweetness in its texture alongside a red berry sweetness. Slightly sugary in its nose.

Half of gravity at the Lytton Arms beer festival. Had it at the end of the meal and it was good to start with. Really rich malt, but it warmed too quickly.

Many thanks to ThirstyBird for sharing. The beer starts smooth and malty. Nice caramel there with chocolate hints. Easy to drink with a nice caramel body. Smooth, rich and round with not too much bitterness. Nice smooth chocolate aftertaste! Great!

Cask, half pint at Lion and Key in Hull. Crocheted lacing from low beige head. Rosewood coloured body. Dark malty smell, caramel and bread. The taste profile follows suit with dark caramel, dark dough and with moments of dried fruits towards the ending. Well bodied. Fits the season very well (shared with Finn, 25.11.2015).
