4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 procraste (248) - FRANCE - OCT 12, 2015
Cest un peu la fiesta du fruit exotique bien mûr cette bière ! On dirait plus une IPA bien chargée et démonstrative quun véritable barley wine traditionnel ... On se dit que ça devrait être trop mais finalement cest dune gourmandise séduisante ... Se boit particulièrement bien un peu trop fraîche et ainsi, cest un plaisir de la découvrir tout du long de la dégustation, à mesure quelle se réchauffe.

4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 Echon (101) - Århus, DENMARK - SEP 21, 2015
Tap at Fairbar. Light bronze body with an off-white head. Round, hoppy aroma with notes of citrus. Rich and well-rounded sweet taste with lots of hops and heavy bitterness. The alcohol is fully hidden. Medium body with average carbonation. Long and bitter finish. I have not had too many barley wines as they did not appeal to me initially, but this is delicious and very drinkable. Looks like I should explore this style further.

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 biirusaikou (1446) - - SEP 1, 2015
Draught at Mikkeller. Quite fruity, orange, grape, apple, honey, mildly boozy, long sweet finish. A bit of a disappointment as I love the style and expected much more wheat character, this one is quite syrupy and too sweet for me.
4.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20 KasperResen (3) - Aarhus N, DENMARK - AUG 28, 2015 does not count
UPDATED: AUG 29, 2015 Særdeles liflig aroma med en snert af surdejsbrød og udpræget citrus. Flot gylden farve (galdestensfarvet urin på den gode måde). Let og flygtig skumkrone med vedholdende gardiner. Sødmefuld bryg med velsmag af brændt sukker, syrlig citrus og en humlet tørhed. Træfadslagringen kan smages.
