Bottled. Small sample. Thanks Menno and John. The aroma has caramel, bubblegum. Bit hazy amber coloured beer with a thin head. The taste is moderate sweet, light bitter, has caramel and dried fruit. Medium-full bodied beer. Good.

Sample from bottle @ De Molen, thanks Menno & John. Brown color. Off white head, not much. Aroma’s: sweet, alcohol, fruit (-candies). Flavor is sweet, but not overly so. Medium bodied. Long finish. Quite nice.

draught@CBF Rapperswil - hazy amber-brown beer with a modest head retention; aroma of caramel and prunes, apples; quite earthy; sweet and full-bodied; quite dry aftertaste of caramel, prunes and pine needles

Brown color with a little foam. Sweetish boozy and nutty nose. The taste is boozy with butter, cookie and a solid sugar overload. Sweet aftertaste as well.

At CBF Rapperswil. Brown-amber color with hardly any head. Quite hoppy aroma, berries, other fruits. Taste is heavy, plums, (datteln). The booze is present but not aggressive. A good beer, although not like you’d expect from a barleywine.

Tap at CBF. A good barley wine with hints of dates. Usually I’m not fond of those, but here they’re integrated well.
