11th May 2019. Can. Hazy amber beef, small pale tan head. Smooth palate, semi dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Light but smooth malts, decent streak of caramel sweetness fairly well balanced with woody bitterness and fruity rum. Fair bit of ripe orange and tangerine peel on the spicy finish. I have another can of this which I will leave for a year plus, to round off. Good barleywine, just a little young.3.8

Can. Same batch 3.5 years on. As I thought would happen, this has rounded off very well indeed. The rich fruity aspects are now to the front, rum soaked fruitcake and a little barrel induced vanilla. All backed up by cream and caramel malts that are not even close to oxidizing. Some spice remains on the finish. What was a very good barleywine is now a superb one.
