Very drinkable, a little white grape, bitter grass and orange peel, sun-kissed biscuits, mild yeast, bread. Sound.

Big and sweet, viscous, some coffee cake, toasted wood, toffee, bourbon, vanilla, soft earthy bitterness. Chewy, oily. Sticky and sweet to finish.

Lovely old-school BA barleywine. Rich stewed fruits, vanilla, hearty bourbon, caramel, berries, a faint tang, a little earth and wood. Thick, chewy. Sticky and warming to finish. Decadent.

Rich and thick. Quite sweet but not quite cloying. Some gooey dark sugars, chocolate, bourbon, burnt toffee, moderate roast. Boozy kick. Lightly sticky and warming to finish. Good one.
