Barrel Aged, Really Tasty. This is a blend of our award-winning Totality, barley wine, and Belgian Strong Ale, aged to perfection.
Goes best with: This beer stands up on its own, or pairs well with rich foods, cheese and meats, and some end of the week relaxation.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated November 14, 2025.
Aroma is malt forward with lots of layered caramel notes, chocolate, toffee, and burnt sugar. Light roast notes with hints of dark fruits. Faint oak and light bourbon notes with moderate alcohol notes.
Pours dark brown, almost black with a small, moderately thick, mocha head that recedes steadily to the edges where it lingers. No lacing and very long legs.
Flavor is rather sweet with lots of caramel, toffee, chocolate, treacle and sugar notes. Layers of caramel with some toasted bread and lighter roast notes. Moderate dark fruit notes upfront with lighter notes in the finish. Medium bitterness and medium alcohol notes. Faint oak notes with light bourbon notes.
Mouthfeel is medium full bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and medium alcohol warmth.
Overall, a solid barrel aged beer that is real tasty. Complex malt notes with layers of caramel, toffee and chocolate. Lighter bourbon notes provide support for the sugar.

Can from Tavour. Pours nearly opaque dark brown with a transient tan smear. Aroma of very dark caramel, bourbon and a light chocolate note. Full bodied; quite slick feel. Far from dry. Heat might be standing in for bitter. Flavor has bourbon, dark caramel, brown sugar, and hints of chocolate and oak astringency. Wow ale.
