This ale has an intense malty character and aroma, that meld into the cacao and rich caramel, playing off the warmth of the alcohol.

Barley Wine tasting at Bratislavka. Dark brown color with small beige head. Aroma of chocolate, dark malt, vanilla, caramel, cocoa, alcohol. Taste is very intense with chocolate, cocoa, dark malt, bready malt, caramel, alcohol. Nice sipper.

2022 bottle drunk 12/27/24.
Wow, never seen this...got about 5 ounces before it just turned in to glop. And a majority of the bottle is solid. The beer looks like a chocolate milk shake.
Smells like oak, chocolates, salted caramel, grape and prune. Maybe a bit too much caramel. Not quite as much beer as I'd like. No booze.
Gloppy, gritty, chocolatey, like a smoothie Barleywine. Yep, a chocolate, salted, caramel pastry Barleywine. Pretty frickin bizarre! Guess I got the very end of the bottling line...

Aromas are rich traditional barley wine with lots of yeast and malt, don't pick up much chocolate or caramel, maybe hint of oak. Cocoa comes through more in the flavors along with a bit of caramel but they're not balanced. Very rich. One and done.
