Backlog June 2009 (2004 vintage). Clear reddish brown body under a small, pale beige head. Aroma has malt, dry fruit, caramel and vinous alcohol. Taste is sweet, rich malt, dry fruit, balanced bitterness and warming alcohol. Perfect body with long lasting, sweet aftertaste. A nice and solid American barley wine.

Backlog January 2009. Amber body under a nice off-white head. Aroma has caramel malt, brown sugar spicy yeast and fruity hops with a certain alcohol sting. Taste is sweet and malty with caramel, brown sugar, spicy yeast, fruity hops, nice bitterness and alcohol that actually feels balanced against the sweetness and bitterness. A solid one.

Backlog January 2009. Golden body under a huge off-white head. Refreshing aroma of fruity hops with some pale malt. Pale is mild malty, fruity and nice bitterness. Medium body with long lasting, refreshing aftertaste.

Bottled. Deep mahogany colour, no head. Woody tobaccoish date- like malt aroma. Sweet with full body and dense, rounded mouthfeel. Whisky, tobacco, raisins, port and bready, treacly malt. Warming bitter finish.

[2019 Vintage] 12oz bottle. Pours black with no head. Nose is very complex with dark malts, gentle smoke and tobacco, dried dark fruits, blackstrap molasses, bourbon. Flavour has dry roast, lots of smoky tobacco, solid notes of bourbon and brandy, dried dark fruits, dark molasses sugars, dry black liquorice. This is fantastic, rich and complex, great depth of flavour. Amazing.
