hopIQ found 10 beers with the same caramel and resinous character as Ol' Fog Burner. A barley wine at 10.2 percent, unfiltered and dry-hopped, tawny copper in the glass. The malt is the centre: deep caramel and toffee with dried fruit and a sweetness that stays mellow rather than cloying for the strength. The dry hopping lays a spicy, resinous note over the top instead of bitterness. The body is heavy and the alcohol warming, and the beer is built to be cellared, softening further with age. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
