Big bottle, huge thanks Fin I guess! Murky dark brown, blackish, no real head. Very minerally aroma, heaps of walnuts, light bit of peat, sweetish but dry. Sweet, smooth, bit dusty, but caramelly, coconutty, lightly alcoholl-driven taste, some maple. BIt rough in the finish and too boozy, otherwise very tasty.

Bottle picked up Beer Republic webshop Berkel-Enschot Netherlands, had this in the company of Jonas, Ursula and Marko Saturday 8th February 2025 at home, Manglham we had Lasagna and we're listening to ByteFM. Loz has made three different types of bread and she also made a Gooseberry Crumble Cake and Ice Cream which was great. Pours dark chestnut with not much of a head. Warming and sweet, a little bit boozy but super smooth and a very easy sipper. I am not convinced that it's a particularly accurate English Barley Wine but perhaps that's the Bourbon throwing me off the scent. I like this but perhaps not as much as I hoped.

Барливайн какой и должен быть. Изумительно тонкий карамельный аромат, который лишь на йоту касается бочки и бурбона. Вкус умеренный, слегка маслянистый и ликерный. Снова карамель в стиле слегка жаренная, немного в леденец отдает на глотке. Послевкусие сладкое, с деревом и благородным бурбоном. Очень комплексно и сбалансированно. Идеальный представитель стиля.
