UPDATED: JAN 3, 2020 2013 keg, tapped as part of Hop and Hound call the keg contest. Thanks Eric and Jason! Wonderfully put together Barleywine, pours a perfect toasty orange with a half a finger of foam. Bold dark fruit paired with some wood. Raisin, malt. Dark flavors with a light bright appearance. Smooth for its strength. Mellow, which makes me wish I could try one fresh. An absolute treat to try this one almost 8 years later.

2013 bottle from Systembolaget. Opaque dark orange with dirt white head. Aroma is dominated by caramel, fruit and marzipan. Taste is similar with big caramel, a bit of honey, fruit and marzipan. Extremely sweet and boozy without much of elegance. Short, caramel finish.

330ml bottle, 2013 vintage. Pours a deep gold with a white head. Fruity, quite complex aroma, marzipan, citrus, marmalade, elderflower, apricot. Sweet, full bodied, mid bitterness, creamy CO2. Fruity taste, citrus marmalade, caramel, apricot, hops, bergamot. Long finish, quite burning alcohol. Quite good, but oddly fruity. (2017-02-19)

Flaska från SB. 2013 vintage. Smak och doft av karamell, fruktig blommig honung, citrus med en smygande ton av pepparrot. Fin beska, lagom sötma, bra balans, beska med citrustoner.

Orange color. Sweet caramel, ripe fruit aromas. Taste of caramel, fruits and yeast. Boozy taste/finish. Way, way to sweet.

(Bottle) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty, spicy nose with notes of orange marmalade, honey, dried fruit (figs), treacle toffee, lemon (or lime?) juice and vinous, boozy hints of glue. Malty, fruity, vinous taste with orange marmalade, honey, black pepper, dried apricots, candy sugar, hints of lime juice and a gluey, vinous finish with a balanced spicy bitterness. More than medium body, quite sweet. Tasty, but too sweet and boozy to be called balanced. Quite nice.

Flaska från SB. 2013 vintage. En snygg modern zestig bw där lite klassisk bw med blommig honung och hjorttronsylt samsas bra med zestig citrus med bett i beskan även efter dryga tre år. Söt och stark med mycket kraft kvar och det känns som att lagringen gjort den riktigt gott. En liten ton av papparrot som växer i beskan förvånar men stör inte. Riktigt gott.
