Bottle shared at CBJ - Bermondsey. Pours black-brown with a small, bubbly tan head. Medium to heavy sweet flavour with a lot of molasses, stewed fruits, a little roast, earth, mild oxidation, cocoa, bourbon, booze. Full bodied, somewhat oily and chewy, with fine carbonation. Warming finish, almost hot, more forward bourbon, some oily vanilla, lots of ripe and stewed dark fruits. Potent but enjoyable in moderation.

Bottleshare at Craft Beer Junction. Thanks to CBJ. Near opaque dark brown beer, small tan head. Smooth and slightly viscous palate, decent fine carbonation. Rich dark malts, big bourbon and rum soaked ripe fruits. Spicy finish. Slightly Impy in character, but a rich and rewarding barleywine.

Can at home from my craft brew tour box. Never a beer I would’ve bought based on description. Fairly bright yellow pour, thick and sludgy some nice top to it. Nose is pineapple and coconut. Tatses of coconut, pineapple, I guess pistachio and mello. Tatses like a pina colada. Zesty orange on finish as well.
