Op tap bij Biererei. Donker roodbruine kleur, geen kraag. Bourbon, rogge, rozijntjes, vijgen, ruikt top, smaak is erg zoet, fruitig, gedroogd fruit, kersen, hoog Dr Pepper / Cherry Cola gehalte, ook door het fijne koolzuur, bourbon, vanille, moutig, stroperig. Bitterzoete finish. Ook weer veel te duur voor wat het is.

On tap. Pours a dark brown with light head and lots of carbonation. Aromas of rich bourbon, toffee, a little maple syrup, raisins and caramel malts. Flavors follow same with a bit more bourbon and additional oak. Warm finish, and good scrubbing carbonation. Excellent.

Taste comprises big barrel tones, spice, booze tunes, figs, raisins, plums, dark malts, toffee.
Full bodied, oily feel, semi drying close with a balanced rising boost.
Solid BA Life.

Bottle. Bright clear dark amber beer, a small and particularly short lived pale tan head. Light palate, a very mild viscosity, good fine minerally carbonation. Smooth malts, a caramel creamy sweetness, not oversweet. Lovely ripe fruity bourbon, punchy flavours but, despite the hefty abv, not particularly boozy. Smooth and mildly dry finish. Rather good then. A barleywine in utter subservience to its barrel but, when the barrelling is this good, well, huzzah!
