Описание
This barleywine was aged in especially rare Irish whiskey barrels that have been made from native Irish oak. It’s a complex, rich and intensely malt-forward drink, with sweet vanilla, caramel wood and whiskey flavours. A very special beer for sipping by the fire.Colour/appearance: a beautiful bright ruby red with caramel coloured head.Aroma: this is pure Christmas on the nose, with marzipan and vanilla to the forefront backed up by raisins and dried fruit. All the aromas of Christmas pudding, and then some.Flavour: lots of warm woody vanilla and oak tannins, alongside deep caramel malt, dried cherries, raisins and dates. There’s a touch of candied fruit: both sweet candied pineapple and bitter candied orange peel.
