1/3 draft at GBBF Winter. Amber pour with a bubble head. Malty aroma, light fruity notes. Taste is malty, sweet, caramel, orange peel. Medium consistency and feel with some of the ABV showing up at the finish.

750ml bottle from Abbeydale online. 2024 release. Gluten Free. Rated on the last night of ratebeer. Orange golden-amber colour, no lasting head and aroma of barley malt, yeast, funk, citrus, hop. Taste is malty, barley, grainy, tangy with orange marmalade, funky yeasty notes and citrusy hop bitterness. Oily mouthfeel, medium to full bodied, low carbonation, drying boozy citric bitter finish. Very drinkable.

Flavour is composed of sticky toffee, caramel, resinous pine, orange rind, mellow dank. Palate is semi sweet, sticky, resinous, mellow carbonation. Lingering barley wine vibes.

Bière spéciale Halloween ! Thanks to you Graham. Beer allows for exceptional encounters. Tasted while listening to Shine On Your Crazy Diamond. C'est un Hoppy Barley Wine que nous propose ici la brasserie Abbeydale. Et en effet, l'amertume est relativement poussée, ce qui lui fait perdre les caractéristiques intrinsèques d'un Barley Wine pour pencher davantage sur une Imperial IPA avec une base maltée développée. Et si on ne retrouve pas la richesse aromatique d'un Barley Wine, ce Last Rites n'en est pas moins très bon sur des arômes de marmelade d'orange simples (agrémentée d'un peu d'herbes et de poivre), mais efficaces. Il se laisse d'ailleurs boire avec une facilité déconcertante avec un alcool à 11 % qui passe tout seul. L'amertume bien dosée et s'assemble très bien à la base dense et gourmande qui est sur les céréales principalement. Corpulence et longueur sont bonnes, tout comme l'intensité. Pas de quoi avoir peur, ce n'est pas réellement un Barley Wine, mais à coup sûr une belle gourmandise simple, mais efficace.

Hazy golden beer, white head. Smell is hoppy, fruity and just a little sweet. Flavour is sweet and fruity, distinct citrusy hop, caramel. Not bad and interesting to have a hoppy barley wine.

Can from the House of Trembling Madness. Pours clear golden with a thin white head. Aromas of caramel, citrus and pine. Taste is rich, sweet, full-bodied, light citrus and more pine. Sweet finish.

330ml Can @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie, Oct 20 just prior to Lockdown 2.0. Penultimate beer of the night. Thanks Mike for this. Hazed gold, white head. Lovely sweet barley wine character overall, nice sweet nose with caramel hints. Creamier and less marmalade than standard barley wine, good drinkability. Very nice.
