Big 750ML skull-cracker. Maybe I’ve been watching too much Walking Dead.

Very dark & pretty still with a nose that’s faint. Raisins & barrel. Little enough of both.

Barrel Aged Olde Ale 2023 is about as malty & full of raisins as they come. Thick, with minimal sweetness, & a gentle, slow scoop of alcohol. The barrel is far enough in the background that it might need a good scope to find it. Half a bomber is plenty.

An overpriced, mediocre beer. Alesmith was once a brewery that could be counted on to churn out excellent stuff, especially barrel aged stuff, but not any longer. It’s sad. C’mon, man!
