But what is a Barley Wine beer?

Barley Wine literally translates to “barley wine”. A Barley Wine beer is a very full-bodied, top-fermented traditional British beer with a higher alcohol content. The same logic must be applied to Barley Wines as for wines. A Barley wine re-fermentation in the bottle and the aging process in the bottle is a factor of quality. Some breweries mention the date of brewing and bottling of the beer. The alcohol degree often between 10 ° and 13 ° allows a long conservation.

The aging of Barley Wine beer gives it special notes

As they age, the malts take on notes of caramel and dried fruits. For a few years now, Brasserie St Germain has been developing Barley Wine with some success.
