Pint can - labeled as an oak-aged maibock - hazy medium gold - creamy texture - not as sweet as many examples of the style, but the malt richness you expect is still present - moderate herbal bitterness, slight mineral quality, moderate oak on the back end - decent.

Wax-dipped 375ml bottle - dark ruby pour - complex nose of fig, treacle, molasses, raisin, oak, whiskey - surprisingly well-masked alcohol - deep caramelized sugars, treacle, dark fruit, sherry, plum, fig - moderate whiskey, but not boozy - I really liked the last barleywine I had from these folks, and this is no different - well done!

Draught at Gourmet Haus. Pours a hazy sunset orange with a massive, billowy off-white head that sustained throughout the pour. Proms of citrus, orange and lemon. Flavor is orange peel and resins. Moderate bitterness with white cracker backing.
