650 ml bottle, 2019 vintage. Dark brownish-copper body, with a tiny, tan head. Aroma of bourbon barrel, toffee, dried fruits, sherry, moderate chocolate. Tastes quite similar, with even more fruits, honey. Thick, creamy mouthfeel, with an average carbonation. Finishes medium boozy, quite sweet, fruity, with bourbon barrel, sherry, toffee. Quite classic Barley Wine, heavy and sweet, but rich and really intersting. Score: 8 / 4 / 8 / 4 / 16
