Viven Barley Wine is a robust beer from Belgian brewery Viven, with an alcohol content of 11.0% comparable to wine. Brewed from barley rather than grapes, this strong ale delivers the characteristic depth and richness of the Barley Wine style. The aroma reveals raisins, plums and mandarin, layered with vanilla and nutty notes. On the palate, the beer is warming and intense, displaying dried fruit and caramel alongside spicy yeast character. The dry mouthfeel makes this a full-bodied, assertive experience that lingers. This is a beer to savour slowly, with enough complexity and substance to reward repeated tasting.
