Can. Well this has matured well already, or is better than I recall. The malts are now smooth caramel and cream and integrate very well with the fruity and spicy rye whiskey barrel. Nice touch of oaky vanilla in there. Light semi dry spicy finish. Still a rich barleywine but much more coherent and rounded.

Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a warming buzz of alcohol.
Tidy.

Can ordered from Left Field Beer, Solihull. Forced on my parents as part of Finnish Joulu. Aroma is doughy and figgy. Molasses and treacle. Boozy edge. Murky dark brown. Foamy beige head. Tangy... doughy Christmad cake and dark fruits. Spice. Chox Chocolate. Boozy bitterness. Medium-heavy bodied. Oily. Flat-average carbonation. Long somewhat astringent finish. Warming. Perfect Beer for Finnish style Christmas celebrations. Bring on the Goat.
