This vintage pours rubescent garnet in color with a tenaciously creamy head. Ambrosial clove, cinnamon and grapefruit aromas lend to the evocatory flavors. A moderately peppery and medium dry malt finish cossets the palette, promoting contemplative sipping and enjoyment.
The ideal winter warmer, John Barleycorn Barley Wine is best served in a snifter in front of the fire throughout the Harvest Season. Ages extremely well with optimum maturity reached at one year and beyond.
