This question is made complex by the fact that there are two very different 
Barley Wines. One is really a wine, and usually includes some form of grape 
(raisins, concentrate, etc.). The other (far more common) type is definitely 
a beer but is called "barley wine" because it's relatively high in 
alcohol--in the normal wine range.

The Digests are coming out fst and furious now, aren't they?

Has anyone found a decent use for that nasty Malta stuff? It seems to be 
just normal beer ingredients, mixed in God-awful proportions and not 
fermented. I know some people use it in a modern version of Chicha (a Native 
American corn beer) but beyond that...
