I have complete 2 English Barleywines, 1 is a year and a half old and one is just 6 month young. both were made with Maris Otter and caramel 40. the older one was pitched with one rehydrated package of Nottingham and the younger one with a package of Nottingham I used in a starter.
They both have molasses (raisiny) flavor.
First question is this normal and were did it come from:
Second, will the finally age out?
I'm glad that I don't have any more than about 12 bottles of each and I have never tasted a true Barleywine. Any assistance will be helpful.
