7 March 2025. At Beer in a Box Adventskalender 2024 Tasting. Cheers to the whole crew!
Rusk, raisin, grapefruit peel, hard caramel, fig jam, tobacco leaves. Sweet raisin & fig, brown sugar, herbal tea. Earthy-herbal hops, bit toasty-nutty. Warming rum-like alcohol. A beer with a clear aim, surprisingly good!

7/III/25 - 33cl can from Beerinabox (webshop, NL), shared @ Gentse Biervereniging adventskalender-tasting, BB: IX/2026, 24277/13, 249 16:51 (2025-242)
Clear red brown beer, small creamy beige head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: soft roast, grains, some cow fodder, hay, caramel touch, hint of bubble gum, toast, decent but not your typical barley wine aroma? MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: hoppy start, lots of caramel, grains, soft acidity, bitter touch, ok. Aftertaste: a bit oxidized, caramel, alcohol, malty, soft acidity, hoppy touch, grassy, meh. Rather disappointing for a barley wine.

Can from Beer in a Box. A hoppy American Barley Wine the likes of which we don't see much these days unfortunately. Wish this were a bit hoppier, still it's pleasant, with some nice malts as well.
