(Bottle 33 cl) Vintage 2002. Pours an almost clear, amber golden with a tiny, off-white head. Soft aroma of overripe fruit. Very full-bodied and a very smooth mouthfeel - partially due to the low carbonation. Has very distinct, sweetish caramel accents, vanilla and again this typical overripe fruitiness. The finish is full of overripe fruit. This really has aged quite gracefully. 080507

Unclear amber with no head. Aroma & taste is very sweet malty caramel, hoppy & alcohol sugary. Nice texture - ok filling & smooth. Alcohol well hidden & overall well balanced. Great Barley wine!

330ml bottle (bb. May 2011) from Systembolaget. Pours a deep brown coloured body and a small ring of white foam. Strong vinous and sherry character in both smell and taste. A lots of dried and dark fruits in the flavour with an oaky touch. Velvet palate. Yeasty ending supported by warming alcohol. A great version of the style, but gets a bit too sweet. Only one bottle now and then (01.12.2006).
