Minimal Space
Temporal Artisan Ales

Poured at fridge temp after wrestling with the wax for about 5 minutes! Pours a nice dark murky brown with minimal head. The nose is insane. Toffee, brown sugar, molasses, bourbon, vanilla, figs, plums, raisins, slight note of tar, and a light tobacco note.

The taste is amazing. When I think munichwine, I think sweet. This is a nice balance and not cloying. Strong notes of burnt toffee, Christmas fruit cake, black licorice, bourbon, vanilla, barrel char, brown sugar, slight maple, raisins, figs, and some prunes. Just a wonderful beer.

The mouthfeel is medium bodied with a boozy toffee aftertaste. Overall, this is probably my favorite munichwine that I have tried.

Bottle: Poured a murky dirty brown color ale with a medium size off-white foamy head with minimal retention and lacing. Aroma of deep caramelized malt notes with some residual sugar notes with some strong bourbon notes with some woody notes and vanilla. Taste is also dominated by deep caramelized malt notes with some bourbon notes with some woods feature and vanilla with some residual sugar notes. Body is really full with good carbonation and some alcohol is noticeable. Solid BA barleywine - I would love to have regular access to this.
