Gulbrun med noe kremet skum. Lett og frisk. Lukter og smaker mildt av grapefrukt og andre sitrusfrukter. Forfriskende.

Took a bit of a ribbing from the locals for unwittingly pulling off the pump clip to read it and not being able to get it back on - it was way too dark at the bar with a dark clip in my defence!!! Solid Barley Wine with its Barrel Ageing evident and a positive in taste. Not the strongest in the style but strong and sticky-sweet enough here.

Can at home picked up from Asda. A clear golden coloured pour with a lasting frothy white head. Aroma is nice earthy grains, lemon rind,, bready, tangerine,, mild tropical notes. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, bready grains, light hay, mixed citrus, melon balls, pine, little dirty hop in the finish. Palate is semi sweet, light grains, moderate carbonation. Solid for a supermarche job.
