Barley wine fermenté à la levure Kveik, c'est de la puissance, du caractère, de l'alcool... Et de l'orge, beaucoup d'orge! En ce qui concerne les arômes, on y retrouve des touches de caramel, de fruits confits, de pain grillé, de biscuit, de malt grillé. Favorisez sa dégustation dans un verre à ballon afin d'apprécier pleinement ses notes chaudes, rondes et alcoolisées, surtout si vous êtes novice dans le style. Bonne dégustation !

Bottle from a souvenir shop in Metz - many thanks, Anke! Pours hazy brown-reddish with a lasting, small, frothy, tan head. Aroma of dried orange peel, candied banana, sweet tobacco, almond, brioche, walnut, earth, herbs. Taste is medium malty sweet, quite fruity, hints of red apple, plum & banana on a subtle caramelly & brioche-like base, becoming quite bitter, nutty, herbal, toasty & even somewhat smoky. Dry, herbal hoppy finish, nutty still, ashy eventually, though caramel & some warming liqueur-like alcohol linger too. Medium body, creamy texture, soft carbonation. Feels slightly too 'harsh' in the end but the main character is good.
