Opaque dark brown beer, good pale tan head. Palate is light and has a fine minerally crispness. Smooth sweet malts - light cream and a delightful chocolate mild shake streak, emphasis on the milk. Traces of spice and fruit. Light semi dry finish. Hides the abv well. Very drinkable.

Dutch barley wine brewed in Belgium, tasted at Arendsnest. Thick, sticky, creamy, yellowish white head, hazy amber colour with copperish hue. Aroma of vanilla, almond, cognac, candi sugar, strawberry, treacle-waffle, wood, lime, red apple, orange. Sweetish taste with slight sourish accent, banana, candied orange, brown sugar but all in a concentrated, refined way, caramelly and honeyish malt sweetness in a vinous texture, smooth, with dry, woody, candied sweet and liqueurish finish, dried by peppery hops and whisky-like, warming but not too obnoxious alcohol. Warming, vinous, rich: this is how any good English-style barley wine ought to be.

Bottle at Ash’s. Pours clear dark brown with a thin white head. Aromas of toffee, biscuit, oranges. Taste is sweet, caramel. More orange. Sweet finish. Not sure why they went to the trouble of freezing the water out. Why not just brew a strong beer in the first place?

Bottle thanks to Stuu666. Appearance - deep brown or black. Nice head. Nose - toffee, malt and some biscuits. Taste - more of the same. Oranges on the finish. Palate - medium to full bodied with a tangy texture and a balanced dry finish. Overall - a nice rich beer.
