Look kids...a strong English pale ale that towers high above the rest. Made from the second running of our barley wine, it has a rich malt body and distinct character from generous amounts of Kent and Fuggle hops. At 6.6% ABV it's sure to help you loose track of time and ring your bell.

Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a semi-dark rustic copper color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that fell off at a decent pace. Messy lace.
The aroma had a nice blend of floral hops over top of some caramel/toffee malts with a decent biscuit/breadiness quality sliding in.
The flavor was somewhat malty sweet with a decent bready/biscuit aftertaste. Finishes with a little bit of a light floral hop punch.
The feel was between light and medium bodied with a pretty good sessionability about it despite being a tad bit higher level in ABV for the style (I didn’t mind).
Overall, pretty nice English pale ale. Might even attract the American crowd to try this.
