Bottle purchased from Otter's Tears, Burslem. Drunk at home. Reddish tan, mostly clear with a beige head. Sweet aroma of caramel, barley sugar, strawberry. Intense sweetness to the taste initially, with a harsh boozy quality. Becomes more bitter in the finish. Notes of toffee and black pepper in the aftertaste. Thick body, carbonation fairly sparse. Decent if muddled.

Semll of grain, malt, oak. cognac. Muddy orange colour, beige head. Aroma of alcohol, oak, oat, also rye to be noted. Sweet with some bitterness. There’s something off-balance here that I can’t pinpoint. Medium carbon, oily texture, heavy body.

Bottle. Nose has a traditional barley wine profile, brown sugar, hint of syrup, touch of apples, but it is a little muted. Taste is brown sugar, lots of malt, body leading to an unexpectedly strong pine and herbal hop note. Lots and lots of booze, which slightly tips into an unpleasant vodka note as it warms in the mouth. Further sips lead to a slight hint of apricot, and and caramel, with a tangerine and marmalade pith bitterness.There are aspects of a good beer, but the alcohol when combined with the slight medicinal hop note, begins to overpower the beer as it breathes, and by a quarter of the way into the beer it?s pervasive. It .
