BBA Barleywine, Barrels Used: New Riff, Aged: 25 months
The empire Remus built didn't fall from the sky. Before the infamous bootlegger became an icon, he worked at his Uncle’s neighborhood pharmacy until the day he finally purchased it. His pharmacological know-how helped fuel an exploit he imposed to acquire alcohol during prohibition. Within the confines of the strict Volstead Act was the ability to purchase alcohol when prescribed for medicinal purposes. What ails you my friend? This beer is a collaboration with the Facebook Group Cincinnati Craft Beer Club.

Purchased after the 10th anniversary brewers brunch at the brewery.
Deep brown color with a thin cap of foam.
Aroma has a boozy character with hints of toffee.

Full body with a silky feel.
