Hazy deep red - amber beer, tidy cream colour head. Palate is airy, semi dry and has modest fine carbonation. Smooth malts, some caramel. Ripe fruits. Fair dollop of spicy esters, too much really, gives an awkward overall taste. Soft finish. Respectable but loadsa headroom for improvement.

33cl bottle courtesy of and shared with Kermis. Very thin off white head. Cloudy amber pour. Too herbal. Not a great barley wine . Nice name though

Small yellow head, irregular, over well-carbonated opaque redbrown beer. Cake, dried fruit (raisins, apricots, plums,...) bit of bitter almonds, maltsyrup. Bitter with faint sweetness, cakey, underneath; chocolate, again fruity-yeasty. Faint brandy flavour. Quite well-bodied, oily-slick, bit pappy feel in the finish. Good carbonation. Quite nice, but as Barley Wines go, there’s better around.
