Starting with an innocent and playful aroma of raisin and fig, this Barleywine will quickly tickle your tastebuds up with honey-like-sweetness and toffee. You'll experience the payoff from 18 months in a Buffalo Trace Bourbon Barrel as it finishes with an oaky, bourbon, and a warming profile to remind you Thunder in the Distance is a special part of any storm.

Poured from undated 500 ML bottle into a Willi Becher glass. It pours a very dark cola color. The ecru-colored head disappeared almost immediately leaving no lacing. The Buffalo Trace bourbon dominates the nose and is complimented by brown sugar, caramel, and raisin. There is something very off about the flavor. It's more sour than anything although the bourbon is quite strong. The mouth feel is thin and it drinks its full 12% ABV. Overall, I'm just not enjoying this very much.
