This is a collaboration with Peabody's Wine and Beer Merchants, and is the first in a series of blended one-off brews. Series #1 entitled Lock, Stock and Bourbon Barrels is a blend of several vintages of barleywine that have been aged in bourbon barrels and then blended back in together for the ultimate layered experience! Only 480 bottles were made of series #1!

Thanks to GRG1313 for sharing this one at his tasting.
Pours a hazy dark brown with a foamy beige head that settles to wisps of film on top of the beer. No lacing on the drink down. Smell is of dark roasted malt, cocoa, caramel, and bourbon aromas. Taste is much the same with caramel and bourbon flavors on the finish. There is a mild amount of woody bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a lower level of carbonation with a slightly crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is a pretty good beer with a nice bourbon barrel aged presence that is slightly better in the taste.

Barley wine bottle share on 1/31. This was one of the hits of the evening, lots of chocolate notes, blending perfectly with the malts and bourbon barrels. Smooth, delicious, and tasty.

One of the best blended beers I have ever had produced by Olde Hickory. Beer was aged in a barrel bought by Peabody's beer shop. Wonderful overall taste and mouthfeel. Bought this at the store release and aged it until the 4th of July 2015. Just now getting around to the review so it's brief. If you can find this beer you must have it. I heard they sold for 50 dollars at the last Peabody's sale. I paid 18.99.
