Barrel Aged Barleywine. Barleywine is not wine, its beer as strong as wine. We aged our version in Bowman Bourbon barrels for a year. Assertive yet smooth bourbon flavor blends the complexities of the Very Malty beer. Malts: Maris Otter, Crystal, Amber, & a touch of Chocolate malt. Hops: Nugget, Hersbrucker.

32 ounce crowler (filled 4 days ago) poured into a snifter.
Clear chestnut brown pour with ruby highlights.A straight in pour yields one finger of fizzy tan foam that disappears as quick as cola foam. The nose is boozy, alcohol dominates, you can actually smell the heat! Some caramel malt peeks out but that’s about it. Balanced slightly to malt, caramel malts, piney and woody hops, earthy notes and restrained sweetness. The medium body is smooth and creamy with plenty of heat. There is enough alcohol to give it a tongue numbing feel. Hats off to whoever slapped the name on this one, it’s a beast. Apparently I’m no David because this one kicked my ass. Let’s call it a sipper.
