Hepworth & Co Thomas Hardy's Ale 2024

Country: UK | Style: Barley Wine | Size: 250ml | %ABV: 11.3

From Hepworth & Co:

Amber coloured Barley Wine laden with bronze glints. On the nose, straight away the bouquet has impact, intensity and complexity with notes of both candied and alcohol-soaked fruit, dried figs, fresh tobacco and chocolate, while a caramel sensation is perceived but remains in the background. In the mouth, the initial sensation is of incredible density and softness, a silky warmth accompanying memories of bitter orange marmalade, dried fruit and chestnut honey. The finale provides a refreshing, slightly sharp hint that adds harmony and balance. It can also be stored in the wine cellar to taste its evolution over time.
