Chestnut brown with a creamy off-white head and a sweet, malty aroma. Light bodied albeit a little bit creamy, it has a light caramel malt flavour with a touch of fruit coming through

On keg at a pub in Tipton 22/6/2024. Medium brown with a frothy, off-white, head. A sweetish mild, with brown sugar, some fruitiness and a gentle finish. Fine.

Can from Wine Rack, Weybridge. First time I've seen it in singles. Aroma is sweet - caramel, dark fruit and nuts - alongside booze and veg soup. Clear dark amber. Thick fluffy foamy off-white head. Sweet and fruity. Sugary. Sour edge. Some bitterness. Booze and berries. This duo gains momentum. Medium bodied. Verging on oily. Soft carbonation with a gentle fizz. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Nice enough without the warming embrace of a stronger bolder Barley Wine.

Cask @ The Wheatsheaf, Shifnal. Clear tawny coloured brew with a creamy head. Has light bready malts, which provides plenty of flavour.

0.5 l bottle from 'REWE' (Wyk auf Föhr), best before April 2024. Clear, amber with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, off-white head. Sweetish, gently fruity-floral aroma of marmalade, tea leaves, orange peel and light peach. Gently sweet, malty, moderately bitter, slightly fruity-floral taste of marmalade, orange peel, nettles, grains and some tea, followed by a short, gently bitter, quite dry, almost watery finish. Thin to medium body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Solid Bitter, not too aromatic, a little thin but quite drinkable.
