Аромат отличный и в стиль, много патоки, жженая карамель приятная, прямо даже немного дымка есть, легкая сладость и коньячность. Крепость тоже ощущаеться даже по запаху, цвет коричневый, прозрачный но глубокий, пены нету само собой. Вкус отличный и крепкий. Снова много патоки, меда, карамельки, и легкой жжености всего этого, но без дикой сладости. При глотке есть алкоголь и бочка, далее переходит в клоричневый сахар и карамель. Также снова намеки на коньяк. В целом отлинчый барлик.

Bottle. Color: Very dark ruby, very thin beige head. Aroma: Sweet, dark fruit, caramel, milk chocolate, some vanilla, spicy hints. Taste: Dark malt, milk chocolate and cocoa notes, subtle spicy notes. Vanilla. Some wood. Dark fruit hints. Boozy. Sweetish. Light to moderate bitterness. Dry-ish mouthfeel. Full body, below average carbonation. Quite a lot of different flavours but lacking balance in my opinion. Ok, but not one of the best Barley Wines for me.
