Gallows Hill
Gallows Hill is a barley wine in the English style at 8.5%. Malt leads throughout, with a pronounced sweetness that stays well ahead of the hops. Alongside it runs a note reminiscent of whisky and cask. For a barley wine the flavour is restrained rather than dense, which places the beer among the lighter examples of its kind.
