Caramel Madness: where brewing mastery meets flavor alchemy. This luscious and full barley wine is a tapestry of taste woven from six distinctive grains: barley, wheat, oats, rye, spelt, and emmer. English yeast, combined with a slightly elevated fermentation temperature, brings a delicate fruity aroma, adding a layer of complexity to the rich caramel profile. But the real magic lies in the art of triple mashing, in which the grains truly get to shine to caramel perfection. Caramel Madness is an ode to the alchemy that transforms grains into liquid gold.

Can at home. Deep copper pour with a beige head. Nose is indeed a lot of caramel, very dark sugars, toasted malts, more beld back dark fruits, some honey even. Taste is looooads of caramel, some honey again, toasted malts, initially on the sweeter side but then the finish turns dry, almost tannic, reminiscent of honey almost.

Decent enough beer. Not boozy actually and a bit on the sweet side. Nothing special. Guild box

--Sample, thanks fonefan! -- Clear mahogany colour. Caramelly nose. Really sweet with full body and rounded, syrupy mouthfeel. Syrup and caramel sauce. Caramelly finish with some alcohol and bitterness. Gimmicky and one dimensional in typical Moersleutel fashion.
