Bird Brewery vliegt in 2018 het hele land door en brouwt in ieder provincie met één van de smaakmakers. In Noord-Brabant brouwen we samen met onze vrienden van Frontaal. De Bredase brouwerij is de laatste jaren flink gegroeid en weet nationaal en internationaal indruk te maken met kwalitatieve, smaakvolle bieren.
Deze Barley Bird (10%), bijnaam van de sprookjesachtige Nachtegaal, is een volle én doordrinkbare Barley Wine. De moutigheid en fruitige hoppen zijn prachtig in evenwicht en maken het tot een bier om de koude dagen heerlijk door te komen.

From tap at Woodies, Zwolle. Aroma is sweet caramel malt, spices, candy, notes of dried fruits, liquorice root. Flavour is rather sweet with a moderate bitterness in the finish. Body is medium. The candied sweetness and spices combination doesn't really work for me.

0.33 l bottle from 'Het Biermoment', best before February 2020. Clear, ruby with a thin, frothy, almost stable, off-white head. Sweetish-malty, slightly fruity and a little herbal-resiny aroma of molasses, caramel, raisins, candied cherries and traces of pine. Quite sweet, malty, gently bitter, moderately fruity and a little herbal-resiny taste of molasses, caramel, raisins, red fruits and hints of pine, followed by a medium long, gently bitter, slightly herbal-resiny and a bit boozy finish. Medium to full body, slightly smooth and a bit effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Solid Barley Wine with a pleasant hoppy touch.
