50cl bottle I bought in Littleton NH, pours a murky brown with a ring of off white head. Nose is caramel and malt and raisin, some butterscotch. Flavor is sweet, raisins, dates, butterscotch, port, caramel. Finishes sweet, some boozy heat. The body is a bit thin.

Tobacco and some bitter herbs. Mahogany pour with decent head and lacing. Some plum and some hint of vanilla. A little oak. Light bittersweet finish. I like this better than many barley wines because it's a little more subtle in flavours. Bottle.

Draft 6 oz. sample at The Flight Center, Nashua. Dark amber that show some clarity. Aroma is nice, plums, rasinis, English ale yeast, oak.
The base barley wine is nice. The oak helps enhance the experience. The oak is subtle and adds to the dark fruit depth. The bartender told me this keg was aged. And that makes sense because the alcohol is totally hidden. Real nice brew!
