2nd February 2020
Opaque dark brown beer, small bubbly pale tan. Smooth and fairly light and semi dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Unsweet toffee streaked malts. Ripe fruits, very ripe. Touch of wet wood. A bitterish floral streak on the back end with watery brandy. A curious affair, complex and tasty but doesn't quite sing.

Tap. Hazy brown color with beige head. Aroma is toffee, gummy bears. Taste is toffifee, gummy bears, fudge, lightly resinous, jammy raisins. Oily mouthfeel with soft carbonation. Quite balanced for a Barley Wine!

Dunkler, süß-säuerlicher Beginn mit leichtem Holz, alkoholisch. Trocken herb-malzig, leider nicht genügend Tiefgang. Würzig malzig, mittellanger Nachhall. Okay. 9/9/9/8//8
