A "Vin d'orge" to be distinguished from American barley wines. Unique, but if linked to any other type of beers, it would be classic English barley wines.
Wine from barley sugar. One single variety of noble hop and one single variety of malt were used
Beer Ratings and Reviews:
[1] Review by Phil B from Gatineau, Canada who has tried this beer once. (4/8/2008 1:01:57 PM)
"Bottle: Poured a deep clear copper color ale with a medium foamy head with good retention and some light lacing. Aroma of sweet malt with some toffee notes and caramel. Taste is also dominated by some sweet malt with distinctive notes of caramel and toffee. Fairly low hops presence which does fit the beer properly as accent should be put toward malt. Medium body with good carbonation and no apparent alcohol. I very much appreciated that one and it reminds me of Youngs Old Nick."
