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.

Can. Near clear deep amber brown beer, good tan head. Smooth palate, decent fine carbonation. Smooth malts, light caramel and cream. Mild toffee. Dates and a touch of marmalade. Slightly savoury caramel and soft mild brandy on the soft finish. Good barleywine. Layered and flavoursome. Should improve with age but splendid now.
