3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle (in NZ), pours a amber colour with a off white foamy white head. Caramal malt aroma, with spicy hop notes. The hops are peppery on the palate, the malt is fruity at first and then gets more complex - medicinal, aniseed, and nutty. The finish is just a touch cloying. It’s a good barley wine, but I’m not sure it does enough to make me want more.

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy brown with a chalk white head. Light hoppy aroma with a vague spice note. Flavour is quite spiced and with a hops note swept through the palate. Mild liqourice note mixed with dense caramel malt flavour and a spiced bitterness. Light liqourice into the far finish.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle@Home. Tangerine aroma with a hint of iodine. Light hazy, orange colored, beige head, good lace. Light sweet start but very sweet finish, iodine, tangerine, nutmeg, vanilla, dough and laurel, sticky mouthfeel. Maybe I was expecting too much but what I got in the glass was rather disappointing. Too sweet, too few hops and a complexity of flavors that’s not in balance.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle from open all hours. Looks like a belgian blonde ale and is very similar in the nose. Aroma is peachy sweet pale malts, slightly buttery, no alc, grassy hay hop notes. Taste is similar very drinkable with a good mouthfeel though thinner in the body than expected. Spicey finish. Nice beer not sure what catagory it fits under though?
3.9 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle - Beautiful slightly hazy amber body, lasting creamy off white head; Very deep intense and elegant nose, beautifully balance between flowery fresh and caramel deep aromas; Huge body that is actually to full and to caramel sweet, it has a little hoppy bitterness but the spicy sweetness is way overpowering; Very long spicy finish, again a little to full. Very nice beer with a super elegant nose that doesnt fit the rest of the beer (or is it the other way around)
