Barley Wine
Microbrasserie Riverbend

 

Can: Poured a cloudy bright burgundy color ale with a medium size foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of caramelized cereal notes with some light dry hoppy notes is pleasant. Taste is mostly focused on caramelized malt with dry cereal notes and pleasant grainy notes. Light dry hoppy notes are also noticeable and offset some of the residual sugar notes. Body is about average with good carbonation with no apparent alcohol. Very interesting and promising. Some age might help to offset some of the greener hops notes which fits more or less well in this beer.
