With a soft tan head and deep ruby hue, our take on a traditional Barleywine features a rich blend of British and German malts with a late addition of English and New Zealand hops.
A complex grain bill of Pale, Munich, Crystal, Amber, Carafa and Melanoidin malts creates a full-bodied biscuity foundation with nutty undertones. East Kent Goldings and Taiheke hops added towards the end of the boil infuse a subtle hop character that perfectly complements the malt base.
Each sip delivers notes of dark fruit with plum, raisin, and fig at the forefront, rounding out this exquisitely layered Barleywine.

On tap at Mikkeller & Friends, pours a deep dark mahogany with a small beige head. Aroma has plenty of caramel, toffee, brown sugar, and bready malt. Flavour is very malty, with lots of toffee, caramel, bready malt, and just enough bitterness to back. Nicely balanced, definitely not sweet. Very good.
