COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This English style barley wine is a beer that will warm you right up on those cold winter nights. We use over a 100 pounds of molasses to give the beer a different flavor plus the molasses compliment the hops we use named Styrian Bobec (never heard of it before, decided to give it a shot) this hop has a real earthy flavor and aroma that compliments this beer well!

Draft. Toffee colored beer with a low off-white head. Earthy aroma with some caramel malt. Mineral and caramel/toffee flavor with something strange finishing (wierd sorta metallic). Medium-plus bodied. Strange metallic flavor lingers with caramel/toffee and light spice.

From tap at Toronado, Barley Wine Fest 2010. Pours almost clear and golden dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma is mild vegetable, yeasty and caramelish. Sweet caramelish and light yeasty flavoured. Light bitterness coming through into a caramelish finish.

Tasted at Jupiter. Medium dark brown with a fizzy off white head. Malt and spice stand most prominently on the nose. Taste is of caramel and toffee with the spiciness of a typical winter warmer. It was decent.
