Hazy pale brown, with a decent head. The aroma is fruity, bringing pear and fig, some slightly toffeeish sugar. Smells like barley wine. The taste is more barley wine but with a keptinis accent, so I'm guessing they took an English barley wine recipe and fermented with Lithuanian yeast. Fairly sticky, low apparent bitterness. Good malt character, rich and sticky. I hope they put this into a few barrels because there's quite a few that would work here.

On cask at Main Street, pours a cloudy dark amber orange with a small off-white head. Aroma has dark dried fruit, gentle resinous hops, and a bit of bready toffee. Flavour is malty and moderately sweet, with tons of dark dried fruits (figs, dates), brown sugar, and caramel. Nice malty base, with a surprising complexity. Strange choice to cask a barley wine but I’m happy with the result.
