This is a limited edition beer

L'ultime bière hivernale! - Pour le début de la saison froide, nous avons brassé pour la première fois un vin d'orge américain aux caractéristiques très complexes! La grande quantité de houblon utilisés au brassage la différencie des vins d'orge anglais par son amertume franche et sa finale légèrement résineuse. Cette bière a été brassée avec une méthode de double empâtage pour aller chercher toute la complexité possible des notes caramélisées des malts utilisés.

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

Fairly clean, with very tiny transparent particles, slightly hazing. Amber with golden highlights, a big head, light-beige, bubbly, foamy, frothy with very good retention and foam lacing. Toasty malt nose with caramel ones, dark fruits and a herbal touch. The mouthfeel is quite dry in the finish, very bitter end. The hoppiness takes over the flavours of malt and fruitiness. This cuts the richness, sweetness of the style. A very, very hoppy Barleywine that lingers tart, bitterness, wood and grass.
