12 oz barley-wine suggestions

Flying Dog's Horn Dog Barleywine is solid

 

Wasn't too big on Duck Rabbit's barleywine, but it's definitely on the cheap end.

 

Cereal Killer

 

Monster ale from brooklyn brewery is good

 

That's like saying a Ferrari is "really great" as a car.

 

Lakefront Beer Line is rated 83 and pretty solid. Local shop has 4 pack for $10 so a great (cheap) option.

 

J. W. Lees makes a great English barleywine they call Harvest Ale. They also have a number of barrel aged versions of it that are well worth trying.

 

Actually I was being a smartass, Don't Give Your Dog Beer!! beer is poison to dogs!

 

Central Waters Bourbon Barrel Barleywine, it might just be might favorite regardless of size. Although I have never had King Henry.

 

Retired. It was decent enough though, I bought a 2011 four-pack on sale last year.

 

Flying Dog Horn Dog is very underrated, although it isn't as common as it used to be either.
It's one of the few barleyines from the states that captures the better English flavors and isn't overly expensive or barrel aged (which is a different style, IMO).

 

Dogfish Head Olde School, Weyerbacher Insanity, and the obvious Bourbon County Brand barleywine and Bigfoot. Also 21st Amendment lower De Boom was pretty good the one time I had it on tap, never had it canned (which actually isn't 12 oz, it's some strange can smaller than 12).

 

Surprised nobody said Evil Twin Freudian Slip- it's good stuff

 

Have one in the cellar. Looking forward to opening it soon. Is it more English or American style?

 

Weyerbacher Insanity, one of my favorite barelywines in 12 oz bottles.

 

Not a barleywine, but readily accessible and in a 12oz format - North Coast Old Stock. Has that nice blend of hoppy, malty and boozy fresh and ages great.

 

Old Foghorn ain't bad

 

Oh really? What else are you open t-no no.

Stop right there. I can't make that joke.

Not about craft beer. It's too serious.

 

Your local Our Finest Regards from Pretty Things is very good. 22 oz, though.
