COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Our latest take on a style steeped in tradition. Caramel, toffee and burnt sugar flavours build out of a classic malt base, with flashes of vanilla wafers, berries and zesty citrus hop notes. Spinning the beer through Cypress, Oak and Maple spirals imparts a nutty complexity, balancing rich sweetness with juicy tannins in a long dry finish.

colui72 (3437) - Yuen Long, HONG KONG - NOV 22, 2021
UPDATED: NOV 22, 2021 Aroma of caramel, burnt sugar, toffee, vanilla, marmalade. High malt level but with a touch of citrusy hops. Pours clear copper, a medium off-white head, tight, wet, good retention, cream lacing. Good balance between hops and malts, bitterness and sweetness. Not a very sweet barleywine, but not a hoppy one either. Notes of caramel, toffee, vanilla, marmalade. The wood addition enhances peppery aromas and the vanilline profile. Full bodied, medium carbonation, alcohol as expected, and without heat. Solid barley wine, very well balanced and relatively easy to drink, for the style.
