Barley Brew is a vinous beer with a lot of hops in both scent and taste.
In Danish:
Barley Brew er en smuk rødgylden barley wine med en fed og fyldig skumkrone, der changerer fra cremet over i hvid, og som langsomt aftager til en smuk klinge i glasset. Barley Brew dufter kraftigt af sødmefyldte, modne frugter og har en stor vinøsitet med dens kraftige alkoholprocent. Der er en frisk tone af cascadehumle i slutningen karakteriseret ved en duft af citrus og hyldeblomst. Barley Brew har en kraftig, fyldig smag med overvægt af malt og alkohol. Der fornemmes en fin bitterhed, som trækker en flot efterbitterhed. Mundfølelsen er fyldig og syrlig med stor alkoholfylde. Barley Brew er kåret som Danmarks bedste barley wine i Vinmagasinet marts 2006.

[2] Review by oh6gdx from Vaasa, Finland who has tried this beer once. (4/7/2007 8:29:46 AM)
"Blood red colour with mediumsized beige head. Alcohol and dark fruits in aroma with some breadish hints. Pleasantly mixed aroma. Flavour is dry dark fruit, alcohol and hay. Also some cold old coffeeish hints. Flavour is a bit "sharpedged" and a bit unbalanced in that way. The flavours just don’t mix well. "

[3] Review by Sigmund from Hafrsfjord, Norway who has tried this beer once. (1/21/2007 6:50:57 PM)
"660 ml brown bottle, courtesy of Cardinal pub, Stavanger. Also available in Norway at Vinmonopolet. ABV is 10.5%. Deep copper colour, large tan head. Interesting aroma, sweet and malty, but also notes of various berries, esp. blackberries, and molasses, caramel and bakery. Intense flavour, very malty and sweet with loads of caramel, partly balanced by a distinct hoppy bite. Spices and alcohol are present too (alcohol maybe more than I appreciate). Quite good, but not easy drinking - the bottle is for sharing!"
