Pours red / brown with very little tan head. Aroma is rather fruity and sweet. A bit thin in mouth, rather salty. Bitter alcohol burn finish.

Cannette de 8,4oz comme sur la photo. Merci Patrick. Robe cuivrée foncée avec une mousse beige durable. Au nez du caramel et des houblons américains. Simple mais efficace. En bouche le liquide ne sort pas du rang, du caramel, de l’érable et de l’alcool. Un barley wine américain classique. Brassée le 5/2/2013.

Nice aroma with a hood presentation. Not to heavy on the palate and a medium hop presence.

ist barley wine I’ve tried in a can. The beer had a aroma and taste of metallic can. Strong alcohol taste, full to medium bodied, basement aromas, sticky, slick feel. The caramel taste made it drinkable, just not for me.

Caramel colored pour, light head. Brown sugar, caramel, spicy hops, dark honey, light butterscotch candy. I enjoyed this. Funny little can. Bold beer.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Little red bull sized can, pours mahogany with a small tan head, turns into a collar, no lacing. Aroma is nice, toffee, brown sugar, good hop notes that are in the backseat, some raisin and fig as well, stronger booze notes as it warms. Taste is as described with the rock sugar flavors, some buttery toffee notes, fig, good slight hop bitterness with some pine to help it out, its a little hot, the abv is a little noticeable, but not too much. Nice brew that I’m glad i found.

Poured from a can. Pours a translucent copper with a soapy white head of foam with not much retention. Aroma is sweet caramels and some cherry. Tastes sweet and malty complex. A little hot, but not too bad overall.

Né le 5/2/2013, ce vin d’orge a une robe ambrée et une belle petite tête beige. Au nez, je constate rapidement que le caramel fruité et le toffee se font littéralement secouer par des houblons qui sont à la fois citronnés et à la fois poivrés. Une affaire tellement efficace. Au goût, je constate rapidement une cohésion savoureuse entre les éléments. Les malts riches se frottent aisément aux houblons bien vifs. L’alcool ne brûle jamais : ses qualités florales et piquantes apportent une profondeur qui me plaît beaucoup. En bouche, le liquide montre un corps en pleine possession de ses moyens. Son pétillement doux rend la texture beaucoup plus soyeuse. La finale est assez costaude et fusionnelle entre la rondeur maltée et une amertume représentée par des houblons encore bien jeunes. Appréciable comme tout.
