Big Ol’
Barley Wine
Fine Dandy Jolly Golly

An American Barley Wine for all your beery needs. Bold and balanced. That’s Big Ol’. Ode!

Remember way back when, like not too way back when, but ten, fifteen years ago "back when," when it seemed like every American brewery had a big banger of a bitter-bite beer, usually a barley wine style, called something with Old? You had your Old Ruffian, your Old Foghorn, your Old Numbskull. Your Bigfoot… which did not have the word Old in it, but it was, and is, true to style. And Bigfoot, eh, that guy's gotta be old?

This beer is an ode to all those beers. Those malty hop-tangs that sit somewhere between a sports-watching drink and a fireplace sipper. Balanced on the pallet but with enough bitter bite to make you go: Oh! I'd fancy another mouthful of that.

We took what we knew about making neo-old-school American beers and made a big ol' barley wine. It's full of all your classic barley wine-style hops and Citra. Adorable stuff and a beer style that got so many people interested in beer here in Sweden in the '00s — you know, way back when. More is more and all that. Big!
