COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Barley wine has a unique blend of sweetness from residual post fermentation dextrin sugars combined with flavoring hops from Eroica and aromatic Hallertaur hops. Bitterness is derived from Northern Brewer and Eroica hops. These are balanced against a huge background of maltiness from roasted malts (25% of total). The result is chocolate sweetness, and a full-mouth feel with a hint of chocolate malty anise and sweetness.
