    Ah, I was getting to ready to order a bunch of that a couple of weeks ago, and they'd just sold out. Great beer.

    Ecliptic Brewing Co. -- Bourbon Barrel-Aged Orange Giant - Batch No. 6
    Bourbon barrel-aged barleywine
    ABV: 15%; Pouring temperature: 41 °F; bottling data: 12.2021

    [​IMG]

    3.69/5 rDev 0%
    look: 4.25 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.5

    Moderately hazy, brownish-orange body topped with a thin yet persistent head, dense and creamy; thick, sticky sheets of foam coat the glass. Great smell of caramel and oak. The taste follows along with the smell and adds a mild note of orange and brown sugar; boozy with a lingering phenolic note. Heavy, velvety body; boozy; light acrid bite; thick residual sugar presence.

    Some of the phenol presence may be attributable to the high ABV, but there seems to be more of the band-aid flavor and bite than just because of that. I'd guess some sort of beer interaction with the oak. The beer is rich and heavy with some nice bits of barrel aging, but the relatively strong medicinal factor in the taste is a big distraction.

    Their food is consistently excellent - a little place in Millbury MA called Foodworks. The Szechuan string beans are to die for - I can't recall seeing those anywhere else but they are awesome. I didn't feel like cooking tonight so that was a very satisfying dinner. I drizzled it with some of this chili condiment.

    I can get it at my local store for $7 so I'm not paying the ridiculous price of $14 :wink:

    Food looks great, especially the grilled pineapple. Is that chicken?

    The dog was barking on and off all night on the 1st floor. Only at 6AM did we realize there was a chipmunk running around the living room. The rodent was so worn out he was easy to catch. The dog had no problem going on a 1.5 mile walk though.

    A new one from Fox Farm I am really enjoying. One of the most lemony beers I have had lately.

    Frost Lush is a darn good IIPA ... but it's almost unfair to have it after Heady.
