Can. Almost clear orangey amber beer, small bubbly pale tan head. Light palate, fairly dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Thin malts, a bare minimum of malt sweetness but at least some light caramel - toffee. Bright dried fruits and a little crystallised fruits. Mild spice. Thin dry finish. Curious affair, flavoursome but thin and dry. For me, any decent barleywine starts with the malt base, here it seems like a bit of an afterthought.
