Brewed for Christmas 2008.
Made with the addition of raisins and a little smoked malt, giving a typical full barley wine feel in the mouth with a hint of smoke at the finish.

(Bottle. Thanks to SaintMatty) Cloudy amber colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of dried fruit, raisins, caramel, treacle toffee and a touch of smoke. Malty, fruity taste with dried fruit, caramel, treacle, raisins, hints of smoke and a slightly bittersweet finish with a touch of alcohol. More than medium body, smooth and rounded mouthfeel. Lingering malt sweetness throughout. A slight oxidisation doesnโt really disturb, just adds to the complexity. Lovely balance. Very nice beer.
