Bottled. Amber colour, small beige head. Aroma is fruits, wood, some mild herbal notes as well as slight nuttyness. Flavour is fruity, a bit nutty and also has some slight yeasty notes as well. Quite nicely balanced.

Bottled (at ChrisOโs BB 09/2013).
Orange color, not much head. Fruity apricot aroma. Very fruity, peach and apricot, yeast. Quite sweet, not showing much of alcohol. This feels more like Belgian Strong Ale than Barley wine.

Bottle from Pigโs Ear Festival 2008
Hazy dak amber color; no matter what I try, there is no head whatsoever. Light Parmesan aroma? Medium body; malty flavor, some good caramel, with a subtle smokey touch, the required sweetness, light toffee, a peculiar cheesy touch (did I say Parmesan?); the alcohol is well hidden. Correct bitterness. Very good, and interesting.
