Bottle at home. Cloudy orange colour, foamy white head. Nose gets bourbon first, sweet malty tones, lightly sour/yoghurty. Creamy, nicely bodied taste with hoppy fruits, citrus, lightly sour and funky (infection? quite pleasant actually), bourbon in the finish, alcohol is well hidden. Finish is sweet bourbon. Medium-high carbonation.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Max’ place, thanks DSG. Cloudy amber-orange and headless. Sweet oranges, then candy, then hints of malt and some nutella in the nose, fruity, rich malt and nuts taste. Full body, carbonated, mouthful fruity finish.
Bottle sample, thanks DSG! Hazy amber color. Very nice aroma of wood, fruity esters, vanilla, spices, wine. Sweet-sour, nice fruitiness, flavors of berries, caramel, vanilla, wood, mild bitterness. Medium-bodied, oily mouthfeel. Nice.
Oh boy. Yoghurt, doughy, touch of sour fruit, some spices and wood. Sweetness overrules the sour start. Backlog from 2014/10/18.
At a tasting, thanks, smallish head, murky earthy orange color, aroma of wax, cake, ripe fruits and vanila woodiness, strong vanila traits, strong fruity sourness, spicy cake and some chocolate in the back, light but evident bitterness. Intriguing.
Bottle shared at a tasting at Max’s place. Bottled 6/24/13. Cloudy orange. Great aroma of malt, bourbon, vanilla, cookies, caramel, and fruity esters. Sweet flavor with malt, strong fruitiness, a mild tart note, vanilla, wood, caramel, a chocolate note, a bit of bitterish stale hops, and a salty note. Medium-bodied. Very nice.
Botrle. Teku. Deep amber/light brown, little hazy with tiny, light brown head. Poor head retention and lacing. At first nice, vanilla and barrel notes - just like good, old bourbon. In the second raw nice aromas - mainly caramel, little toffee. Medium body, sticky texture, soft carbonation, finish is semi-sweet, little alcohol warming. In overall medium malty packed barley wine with lots of bourbon aromas.
Butelka 0.33L.
Wygląd: Ciemnopomarańczowe, lekko mętne, piana od razu znika.
Aromat: Intensywny, beczka, owoce, melon, truskawki, świeże śliwki, czerwone jabłko.
Odczucie: Średnie wysycenie, ciało wysokie.
Smak: Intensywnie słodkie, decha, śliwka, alkohol wyczuwalny, truskawki, jabłka. Goryczka niska.
Całość: Ciekawe, bardzo intensywne ale sprawia wrażenie lekko sztucznego, plastikowego.
Botella 33 cl tomada en el momento en Oviedo 17..10..2015. (r220). Embotellada 24..06..2013 por 10 años. Color rojizo turbio con espuma beige poco persistente. Aromas maltosos y caramelos tostados dulces con toques de maderas y licores. Sabores también maltosos dulces caramelizados y algunas frutas pasas y gran sensación de maderas secas empanadas en licores acabando con un suave amargo seco no muy intenso. Bastante buena, sabores intensos y buena sensación alcohólica. Para repetir sin duda.
Bottle from Cave a Bulles. Pours light copper with no head. Aroma of warm brown sugar. Neaar full bodied. Flavor is brown sugar, There’s something like dried stone fruits, and there is a subtle bourbon aspect. Not really getting any oak astringency tho. Fruit and bourbon seem to dominate the finish. Quite a nice sipper.
Schön braun im Glas, trüb, kein Schaum, süßlich in der Nase, Whiskey, gedörrte Früchte, cremig im antrunk, leichte Kohlensäure, süßlich, karamell, gedörrte Früchte, nur leichter Alkohol Geschmack, sehr geschmeidig, sehr ausgewogen, sehr lecker!
Très goûteuse, on note le caramel, la résine un peu fade ( à cause du houblon qui à mal vieilli à cause du transport), la fleurs, sucre candi avec une chaleur d’alcool assez présente. Très bonne bière malgré un mauvais vieillissement
Robe rouge-cuivre. Un peu vieille je crois. Au nez, très malté et caramel tendre, doublée par une odeur de résine flambée. En bouche, très onctueux. Légère effervescence, sinon malté à souhait encore une fois. J’ai l’impression que les arômes du houblons sont un peu fané, puisqu’il n’en reste qu’un vague arrière goût... Quelle tragédie! Tout de même caractérielle, notes de noisettes sucrées au candi, étrangement florale et résines calcinées résiduelles.
Bouteille achetée chez Erzbierschof - De couleur orangée avec une magnifique mousse blanche crémeuse qui tient longtemps et laisse de belle marque sur le verre - Au nez des arômes de fruits confit, de figue, de malt, raison sec, abricot, une forte présence du fut avec des notes de vanille et de caramel, une pointe de beurre, magnifique nez très complexe - En bouche des notes de raisin sec, d’abricot, une pointe l’acidité, les tanins du fût, très malté et vanillé, un peu terreux une bouche nettement moins intéressante que le nez - Full body, amertume moyenne, carbonation bonne, douce acide et âpre, final âpre et maltée - domage que la bouche ne soit pas à la hauteur du nez

Keg the grove Huddersfield. Murky brown orange. Aroma is great strong bourbon vanilla taste is well balanced bourbon vanilla some alcohol nice oaky finish with some banana and fruits long warm finish. Decent mouthfeel. Very good this.
Aroma of wood, whisky and vinegar. It smells not like a beer, it is somewhat sweet and tart. Dark amber colour with white not tall head. Taste is also more whisky than beer. It is tart, booze, some sweet with bitter finish. Overall it is not a regular beer, I think you can hate it or love it. I won’t repeat it, but it is worth a try as a something different.
the aroma of cherry, black currant, port and tart... the taste of fruits and berries, including cherry, grapes, black currant and plum with notes of red wine, tart and some spices... sweet and very dry aftertaste...
Bottle. Hazy deep golden color with a medium thin white head. A bit muddy aroma of berries and grain. Sweet taste with medium bitterness. Medium body. A bit sticky feel.

Aroma is honey, sherry, balsamic vinegar. Taste is tart, sharp, sweet and syrupy and then bitter. Body is syrupy also. Curious brew.
The taste is not quite beer. Very rich aroma, sherry, grapes, bourbon, sweet and tart. The taste is very nutty sherry with the addition of bourbon. Very interesting and unusual
