Cask @ King’s Head, Huddersfield. Golden-amber with a creamy-frothy head. Very strong tasting, but no surprise there, but there is a fruitiness to be found, heavy tasting of course.

Chelmsford Winter Fest. Clear gold beer! Smooth soft palate. Low carbonation with a light syrupy feel. Rich marmalade orange and dried fruits. Finishes dry with orange liquer and more marmalade hop. Warming! Normally I would be all over a beer like this but this one doesn’t quite ring right for a barleywine. Not bad though.

(Cask at White Horse, Parson’s Green, London, 27 Nov 2010) Copper colour with brief head. Malty, fruity nose with dried fruit, fruitcake, raisins and hints of old socks. Fruity, malty taste with notes of raisins, prunes, dried fruit, caramel and treacle. Full body with slightly oily mouthfeel. Vinous and warming. Very sweet with some spicy bitterness coming through the alcohol veil. A bit boozy and unrefined, but quite enjoyable in moderate amounts.

Cask gravity at Bricklayers Arms 2nd Annual Yorkshire BF 08. Smells of homemade peach wine. Like peach flavoured turps. Bit of plastic on aroma. Doesn’t taste of 11%, but it’s just too acidic. Aroma has good fruit, but no great body. It’s like my dad’s homemade peach wine.
