Aroma of roasted malts, oak, bourbon, hint of vanilla, coffee, booze, some chocolate. Flavour is moderate sweet and slightly acidic, with a moderate roasty bitter finish. Curious brew, interesting, but I’m not exactly sure what to make of it.

2009 bottle. Aroma of malt, caramel, ripe fruits, peach, apricot, resin, aged hops. Flavour is medium sweet with a moderate bitter finish. After 6 years this Double IPA has turned into a nice Barley Wine indeed.
