Aged for 9 months in American Cabernet Sauvignon wine casks. Light haze on this deep reddish amber beer, small pale tan head. Smooth palate, slightly soft, decent fine carbonation. Smooth malts, a decent creamy sweetness, slightly tangy caramel and toffee. Good winey tang, getting Port Wine like, some sherry and Madeira too boot. Light spice and rich ripe fruits. A rich fruity bitter finish. Unusual barleywine and purdy darn rich and drinkable.

Dark red brown colour. Aroma and flavour are strong with sugary sweet red fruits. Fairly boozy and sweet.

On tap at The Dispensary. Liverpool. Deep ruby brown colour lasting beige head. Aged in red wine barrels i guess sweet ribena fruit. Heat from barley wine. Aroma of port. Raisin sweet. Good though
