Hibernal Barrel-Aged Abbey Quad (11.1% abv):
The base of this beer is our Award Winning Abbey Quad aged in Vino de Naranja and Bourbon Barrels. It was then blended with Wheat Wine, Barley Wine, and further Abbey Quad aged in Tawny Port Barrels to become Hibernal. Vino de Naranja is a Spanish White Wine made with orange peel, and it lends a unique and distinctive flavour to our blend. We get vibrant citrus layered with spicy notes of cinnamon, black pepper, and nutmeg in the aroma. The flavour evokes baked pear, toffee, blood orange, raisin, plum, and dates, from this complex barrel blend.
