clear amber, smooth beige head, looks awesome
ARoma is malty, slightly bready or buttery but really, really refined, alc. can clearly be sensed as a stingy sensation, apart from that, a quite complex barley wine with tons of energy.
Flavor is moderately boozy , barley wine, malts, sweet malts, nutty malts, faint wood, delicate, faint caramel. it's a very boozy sipper, but pretty complex in its apparent simplicity. still, i feel a bit like the beer could be more complex and less boozy with all the effort put in.

Sample, thanks fonefan! Clear mahogany colour, small head. Intense, woody nose with bourbon and caramel. Sweet with full body and rounded mouthfeel. Caramel and wood, peppery rye bread. Warming mid bitter finish.

Thanks fonefan! Copper colour, small white head. Aroma is caramel, some mild rye, alcohol and some brown sugar with a bit burnt tones. Flavour is caramel, rye, alcohol, some brown sugar and some toffee. Quite complex, though easy going.

375ml bottle from Tavour. Mahogany pour, thin layer of beige foam. Aroma is toasty, rye, wooden, raisins, plums. Taste is a nice rich brew of dark, toasted malts, pit fruit, candied orange peel. Mildly spicy with a pleasant warmth.
