Special BA winter release. A big, beautiful barleywine aged in a combination of American and Japanese whisky barrels for 8 months. It’s absorbed moreish vanilla and spice notes, woven into the decadent malty goodness of this rich, deep amber beer. It’s sturdy stuff for strange times.
Bronze color, sweet, malty aroma. Strong, slightly boozy even. Malty with caramel flavours. Notes of bourbon, wood and vanilla from the barrel-ageing. Warming and delicious.
Enjoyed when visiting Howling Hops Brewery and Tank Bar in London (5/2024)
