J.W. Lees Harvest Ale 2005
No matter if you want to call this and English Old Ale or a Barley Wine, ether way this thing ROCKS!!! This baby is alllllllllll malt. Deep amber gold in color with a very dense but small head. The flavor is intense caramel and sweet malt with a gentle dark fruity flavor. Full body with a luxurious mouth feel and a warming 11.5% alcohol. For all of you Thomas Hardy fans out there, this one will give him a run for his money and will age well for years to come.
