English Barleywine This fabulous barley wine is a malty, velvety smooth and full bodied beer with a rich dark ruby color. Old Nick is overflowing with sumptuous flavors of fruit and hops, with a complex bitterness on the finish. Pale ale and crystal malt together with Young's unique mix of cane sugar and Fuggle and Goldings hops.
Best With:
Primarily thought of as a digestif, it turns out that barley wines have an affinity to lamb, venison and wild boar. Classic cheeses such as English and Vermont cheddars as well as aged Gruyeres from Switzerland. Caramelized desserts as crème brûlée and crepes as well as a good vanilla ice cream can finish a wonderful evening of food and beer.
