Bottle thanks to Chow. Pours dark amber with small beige head. The aroma is dark fruit, wood, booze. Slick body, licorice, raisin, wood, boozy, very good.

375ml bottle pours out amber cola color topped with a small head. Nose is sweet caramel toffee malts rich bourbon barrel booze some vanilla. Taste is more of the nice sweet malts rich barrel treatment and a pitfruit kick.

12.7oz bottle pours with a clear deep mahogany colored body that supports a thin short lived mocha colored ring of foam. The aroma offers up molasses and sugary malt infused dates and prunes running along side smooth smelling bourbon notes and a touch of boozy heat at the end of the draw. The taste delivers smooth slick rich slippery sweet malts melded up to sweet molasses and thin layers of sweet dates and brown sugar stewed plums. Wow. This is deep and fun. The barrel treatment is there creating another smooth flavor facet with supple notes of bourbon and sherry flowing into a modest boozy warming sensation. Top notch barleywine.
