Bottle at ChrisO Snow Tasting, thanks to Chris?? It pours hazy golden yellow with a small white head. The nose is tangerine, sweet peach, sherbet dib-dab, parma violets and faint tartness. The taste is sweet tinned fruit, tangerine, orange, sugar, subtle tartness, passion fruit, marmalade and some light booziness. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Pretty flavoursome and well-integrated. Pretty decent actually!

Hazy amber beer, small off white head. Palate is softish with mild fine carbonation. Mild fresh orange well integrated with mellow orange marmalade. A little creamy malt, rich. Subtle and mellow brandy. Smooth finish. Hides the abv well and is quite drinkable.

Would have missed this if Keen Massey hadn’t given me a drop of his, thought this was the same as the bottles I bought! As per the bottle a strong tasting but smooth barleywine with a touch of brandy spirit. Cheers Keen!

Cask at the 2012 Pigs Ear Beer Festival, East London. Amber pour with a white head. Marmalade and barley sugar nose. Fruit and caramel flavour. Quite sweet. Lots of alcohol in there and not much flavour. Had to bin this one half way through.

Cask at Pigs Ear BF 2012, London. Pours clear gold with very little head. Big doughy bread malt aroma, hints of buttery biscuits. Big sweet flavor with definite alcohol, light butterscotch, alcohol-soaked fruits, white bread. Full bodied with fine carbonation. Lightly warming to finish with moderate alcohol notes, light berries and a bit more doughy white bread. Enjoyable.
