Bright bottled at Reading Beer Festival. Notes on the day: "Dark amber. Gentle sweetness - some licorice flavours. Soft spice. Barley Wine? Score 3.7" This is a lovely drop. The spice is very christmassy, and this would do well as a winter warmer. The sweetness has dropped out a bit, but this is a beer that is more about the malt and the spice than the hops. Fully brewed so it doesn’t cling and is fairly clean and easy to drink. A strong ale or winter warmer rather than a barley wine.

Cask at Paisley Beer Festival 2008 ...Copper ... strong hop nose .. fruity quite a bit of hop ... quite juicy ...nice finnish

Cask at paisley beer fest. Alround rating: Spicey grassy richer malts, overly bitter without too much body. Sort of big sting beer that not really ment to be.
