Wohlgemut - our 13% abv Munichwine aged 19 months in a Heaven Hill barrel
I am so excited for this beer, barleywine holds a special place in my heart and this is the first one we’re releasing. It’s also a variation on the typical barleywine, brewed with Munich style malt as the base malt giving it extra breadiness, a style Brad Clark at Private Press (former Jackie O’s brewer) developed.

16.9 ounce bottle, bottle 223/288, no dating on it that I noticed. Served in a snifter, the beer pours a dark brown color with not quite an inch tan head. Head retention is decent, and there's a small amount of lacing. I like the aroma, the brew smells like bready malt, bourbon, vanilla, caramel, prunes and earthiness. Taste is similar to the aroma but with a little more of a kick, and there's also some nuttiness and oak flavors noticeable too. Mouthfeel/body is medium/full, it's coating and a bit syrupy with a low/moderate amount of carbonation. I liked this one a lot, might have to pick up another bottle or 2 if I come across it again. Definitely worth trying!
