My French beer thread didn't get any comments on this so I'm just askin' the question. =)
I tried Belzebuth and it's 13% ABV and isn't in any way a barley wine, how?
It's rather sweet and malty, but is some of that coming from added sugar to push up the ABV without making a barley wine?
I like barely wines, and most every 10%+ beer I've tried are start getting close to the character of "officially labeled" barley wines.
I don't like the idea of adding sugar just for the sake of pushing up ABV. So it's not on my experiment list, but it's the only thing that makes sense to get a beer like that.
