Tap at Borefts 2019: Clear yellow colored brew with an dry bitter taste, hints of grapefruit, some faint chocolate but didn't get that kveik. Nevertheless the beer is great.

Bottle: Poured a deep dark brown color ale with a medium dark brown foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of caramelized malt notes with some nice rum notes and light vanilla notes. Taste is also a good mix of caramelized malt notes with some nice rum notes with not much residual sugar notes with some vanilla notes. Body is about average for style with good carbonation and some warming alcohol notes. Interesting barleywine with nice barrel aging rum notes.

Bottle: Poured a deep dark brown color ale with a medium dark brown foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of caramelized malt notes with some massive rye notes. Taste is also a good mix of caramelized malt notes with some strong dry rye notes with not much residual sugar notes. Body is about average for style with good carbonation and strong warming alcohol notes. Interesting barleywine with too much barrel rye notes.

2022 vintage, a tad more boozy than rum, loads of caramel, alcohol burn. Reddish copper.

Much smoother than rye version, this is nice silky caramel malt with light vanilla, over alcohol warmth

Sample at Palace Hall, Malmö December tasting (14/12/2024) - rich opulent malty with lots of caramel and toffee, rich bourbon coming through, brown sugar sprinkle, full bodied, spiced bourbon infused lingering malty finish.
