Icebock comes from the process which concentrates flavours with freezing of the beer. This means that some water crystallises into ice, while the remaining liquid concentrates. For this icebock we brewed a very special barley wine, barrel aged it, blend it with our barley wine Hagger and froze it. After weeks on -24 C, it was time to drain this super rich liquid. Expect intense flavours with long lasting aftertaste and warming sensation.
PURE DREAMS!

Bottle shared in London - big thanks to MAD Mitch. Pours clear copper-brown with a small, foamy off-white head. Big and sweet, of course, with ample liquefied semi-dark fruits, toffee and caramel, raisins, booze, bourbon, vanilla. Full bodied, oily and chewy, with delicate carbonation. Warm to hot finish, lots of toasted malts, brown sugar, more semi-dark fruits, lightly dried toffee. Delicious stuff. Certainly the kind of thing to drink in a very small dose, but it’s a lot of fun and impressively drinkable for its heft.

Bottle. Dark chestnut brown, tiny beige head, nonlasting. Initially stronger alcohol nose, whisky. Later some more biscuity notes and even later on lots of dry fruits. Sweet start, syrupy sweetness with some nice alohol warmth. Mild afteratste. Silky body. Warming, not burning. Nice sipper, but strong.

Thanks to me. Clear dark brown beer, a few tan bubbles. Smooth palate, very slightly viscous, decent fine carbonation. Rich chocolate malts. Quite a big savoury salty bourbon note dominates the mid. Finishes quite light but with a small bucket of spicy booze. Tasty and layered and pretty darn drinkable.

dark brown to ruby colour, practically no head at all, only some minimal beige lacing; aroma of apricot jam, some prune, burnt sugar, butterscotch, vanilla, moderate chocolate and intensive alcohol; taste of toffee, vanilla, dried apricot and cherry, minimal cocoa and spicy alcohol; great one, though very far from something considered as a 'beer'
