Strong and full-bodied but surprisingly pale in colour, this barley wine delivers warm raspberry and apricot notes on the nose. On the palate it combines refreshing plummy flavours with a fuller, but delicate, raspberry sweetness. A pleasant, fruity and slightly citrus aftertaste. Brewed with Maris Otter pale malt.
