A beer that's become a fan favorite: Arabesque, our Dark English-Style Barleywine recipe that was originally put into Heaven Hill Bourbon barrels for 22 months and then transferred to a second round of casks that were 80% rum and 20% wheated bourbon for an additional 14 months. The resulting beer is full of smooth, sweet spirit character. Rum-soaked raisins, caramel candies, baking spices, smooth bourbon, and char. Exceptionally smooth for the high ABV of 17.1%.

Bottle, 375 ml. shared with Zec, MiroB, Luka and kajser27. Black with almost no head. Caramel, loads of toffee, dates, some figs, nice deep bourbon, drinks almost easily. Incredibly drinkable for abv.
