Barrel-Aged Triple Bock - 3rd Anniversary
Bingo Beer Co

A good strong beer!!! Don't know how German purists would feel about Bourbon Barrel aging in a Dopplebock, but it works!!! Poured from a 16 oz. can into a Stone tulip glass, this beer is a beautiful, almost clear, copper color. There is a surprisingly big foamy white head for a 12% abv beer, but this big head presents and then shrinks down to medium size and holds it! Minimal filmy lacing on the sides of the tulip. The aroma and flavor feature two things - the bourbon barrel flavoring and sweet bready malt. This is a very tasty beer. The bourbon barrel flavor comes pretty close to overpowering the beer, but there is still enough sweet maltiness to keep this from becoming a high octane bourbon barrel brew. Mouthfeel features a good deal of alcohol, mostly warming but with a bit of alcohol "burn" as well. I had this beer with a hearty ham and bean soup and it greatly enhanced the meal. I enjoyed this beer and would love to try it again!!!!
