Old dry-hopped American-style big bitter barley wine, bretted, then barrel aged for over a year in a Speyside whisky barrel.
Very dry and interesting from the Brettanomyces yeast, with added complexity and notes of honey from the Speyside barrel.

Bottle thanks to Stuu. Pours hazy pale gold with a thick white head. Quite high carbonation. Aromas of light barrel, brett funk, orange peel. Taste is more orange, faint wood, pine. Tart dry finish.
