Bottle. Color: Amber, very thin white head. Taste: According to the label this is supposed to be a barley wine...? Ok, there are some notes of a barleywine, but this one is lacking everything: Color, alcohol, taste, warmth, complexity and body. What remains is a very thin taste of barley, some maltiness, bread and a lightly bittery thin finish. And some lightly metallic and cloves hints too. Definitely not what you expect from a barley wine. Don't know if it's ment to be like this... Not worth buying...
