Confoundingly unpronounceable yet eminently drinkable—welcome to §ucaba, an epic barrel-aged English barley wine whose original name was undone by a two‐bit legal challenge. Big, boozy bourbon and American oak aromas combine with soft chocolate malty undertones. Complex malt flavors are framed in oak with hints of dark chocolate, vanilla, tobacco, coconut and just a touch of dark cherry. §ucaba is built to last and can age for years to come (we recommend counting the years with an abacus).

Mellow and perfectly balanced. Hint of sherry oxidation but not old enough to completely hide the barrel. Lovely!

Very dark red wine body, no head. Aroma is heavy molasses with red grape, sugar, tannins.flavour is very heavy and sweet sugar, red grapes; molasses and red wine combined. Very nice though very heavy, good sipping, not at all boozy.
