500mL bottle. Pours slightly murky gold with a small white head. Caramel and toffee malts on the nose. Flavour has tons of burnt caramel and bread crust with an off-dry finish. Has force and depth; this is excellent.

Paler than I expected. It's got a big malt backbone, pleasant balancing hop, lots of bitterness, oaky, sticky finish.

Poured from 500mL bottle. Very hazy gold with small white head. Booze, toffee, light wood, hint medicinal, interesting with the 3 yeast strains, a bit of hopping. A good (and unique), but slightly harsh, barley wine, and my favourite Unfiltered beer, but not outstanding. As I continue sipping it, it grows on me - raising 0.1 rating.

On tap at Vice et Versa, pours a cloudy gold with a small white head. Aroma brings out brown sugar, toffee and caramel. Flavour is along the same lines, with brown sugar, toffee and bready caramel. Wonderfully balanced, with a great depth to this. Complex and a pleasure to sip.
