A clear brown ale with a thin off white head. In aroma, a nice vinous malt with floral hops, licorice, pinot de charente, very nice. In mouth, a nice smooth barley wine with vinous malt, vanilla, pinot de charente, alcohol warmth, beautiful example! On tap at Hivernale, Feb. 23 2013.

Tap (Hivernale): Clear deep amber ale with quite large foamy head. Aroma consists of dried fruit with some light plums notes. Wooden notes are quite subtle with some light residual sugar and no hops presences that can be distinguish. This beer is sweet but never overly so and the alcohol was really well hidden. This is a beer I would like to have on a regular basis and a brewpub I would like to visit someday.
