This year's release of Copper Shrine consists of wheated barleywines patiently aged in Willett barrels for 28-33 months. For our final blend we selected barrels displaying decadent notes of candied figs, sticky toffee pudding, spiced cherry, and floral vanilla. The interplay between the different base beers and barrel is balanced, inviting, and warming. Copper Shrine weaves between an English-leaning interpretation of barleywine and the bourbon-heavy bravado of barrel-aged American barleywines. All that to say, we're excited to have Copper Shrine back and we can't wait to keep blending it for years to come.

Pours swampy black/dark brown with only a couple of soap bubbles. Lots of sweetness and fig and stuff like that. Snally.

Draft pour at Snallygaster 2025. Poured a dark copper color with a small white head. Aroma was big boozy caramel, light raisin. Lots of vanilla and bourbon woody notes. Smooth.
