[Cask at Wetherspoons] A yellow beer with no head. The aroma is slightly hoppy. The flavor contains loads of apples as well as notes of citrus and grapes, that leads to a dry hoppy end. Not my beer.

Dark red brown. Wine and dried fruits (dates and figs), tobacco, malt aroma. Somewhat sweet initial flavour with some alcohol, very warm and full with a distinct, bitter (tobacco?) aftertaste. ^That was the review of the first sip, worth 3.8. After the whole bottle the alcohol and bitterness was too overwhelming and I haveto rat it a little lower.

Aroma of plums and raisins. Brown, no head. Flavor of plums, sugar, malt, and hops. Thinner than many barleywines I have had.

Pours a copper color with a white head. You can kinda smell hops in there but there is not much there. Flavor is about the same, i can get the hops but not much else, kinda watery. Excellent lacing to the beer. Neither good or bad really.
