A rather varied malt bill of 8 different malts including one so rare that the only place we could find it was in Ireland which was duly imported just for this brew then we set off on our master plan to create the most balanced barrel aged beer we could make.
We were looking for a mix of sweetness and a light spice from the malts to work with the bourbon hit and also bring in the vanilla hit from the oak in the barrel, so we dialed back on the dark malts to let the rest of the flavors work through a bit more in the mix. Dark brown sugar and molasses were added to the boil to help with a nice caramel back end on the base beer.
In the barrel for a total of 7 months. After that 3 months in the bottle
