8.1
Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 8.5

Poured from a 2021 vintage 750 ml bottle. Aroma is rich and malty with lots of toffee, tootsie rolls, caramel and burnt sugar. Lighter notes of toasted bread and nuts. Light bourbon and alcohol notes with hints of oak. Pours a slightly murky, brown color with auburn hues and a small, thin, tan head that recedes quickly and disappears. No lacing and fairly long legs. Flavor is fairly sweet with lots of caramel, toffee and burnt sugar. Lighter notes of tootsie rolls, toasted bread and hints of nuts. Medium bitterness and medium light alcohol notes. Light bourbon and alcohol notes with hints of oak. Mouthfeel is full bodied with low carbonation. Low astringency and medium low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid English barleywine. Really nice malt profile and complimentary bourbon notes. Alcohol is well balanced and not overly strong. I like that the ABV isn't crazy high.
