On tap at WBF 2025, pours black, almost no head. Nose is intense, with big cinnamon, apple, and of course apple brandy. Flavour is dominated by the apple brandy barrels—wow, that’s a lot—with plenty of booze, spicy cinnamon, and apple. Very boozy but with deep layers and low residual sweetness. Really nice slow sipper.

On tap at Warsaw Beer Festival 2025. Pours dark brown. Dark sugars, brown bread, and raisins on the nose; very much like a fruit cake. Flavour has tart dried fruits, calvados-soakes brown bread, and dark caramelized sugars. This is fruit cake in beer form; excellent.

Keg at Kufle i Kapsle, Nowogrodzka, Warsaw. Black, small head. Aroma of cinnamon baked apples. Sweet with full body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Pretty much cinnamon baked apples with maple syrup and custard. Lacks nuances and complexity for a beer this size. Pastry style barleywine.

Butelka 33cl (BB 31.10.2028). Suszone owoce, jabłka z subtelną nutą cynamonu i wanilii. Słodycz w smaku kontrowana delikatną owocową kwaśnością. Likierowe, gładkie z przyjemnie cierpkim finiszem. Alkohol idealnie schowany choć czuć jego szlachetną naturę i przyjemnie rozgrzewa, po prostu świetne piwo, które można określić mianem sztosa.

Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 13/01/24. Almost clear deep chestnut brown with a thin beige cap. Nose is stewed fruits, bubblegum, light spice, dark malts, toffee. Taste comprises dark malts, toffee, fruit cake mix, warming Calvados on the gullet, light spice, dates, figs. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced rising boost. Tidy sipper.

27th December 2023 Almost clear amber brown beer, small bubbly pale tan head that is gone very quickly. Palate is very slightly viscous but it doesn't feel heavy thanks to the good fine carbonation. Smooth malts, a little creamy sweetness and a touch of toffee. Thankfully the cinnamon, whilst clearly present, is not overdone. The toffee element of the malts gets richer and darker at the same time as the Calvados barrel kicks in and provides that spicy apple. The light touch of vanilla brings it all together I to a spicy boozy and pretty crisp finish. A different barleywine this one, not a desert barleywine but something a bit different as well. Entertaining and drinkalble.
