Barbados 2000 is a unique barley wine aged in rum barrels for 21 months. One of four limited editions, each with it’s own distinct character. A collaboration between Dugges and Svenska Eldvatten.

This beer, as its three siblings, is the result of a happy accident. In 2013 we we're at a beverage festival. Talking to everyone, as you do, we started talking to the guys at Svenska Eldvatten. They we're very excited about their latest project. They'd gotten hold of a few single barrel rum barrels and had just bottled the content. Amazing West Indies rum. The lightbulb over our heads lit and we asked them what they we're going to to with the barrels. Because, we wanted to fill them with beer! We wanted to fill the barrels with something that could really carry the different rum characters so the choice to fill them with a potent English barley wine was easy. The barrel Barbados 2000 has been lying on used to contain rum distilled at West India Rum Distilleries, Barbados, in June of 2000. The barrel had the number #36.

Bottle. Amber color, dried fruit, rhum vanilla and herbal notes in the aroma. Malty sweet, slightly alcoholic rhummy herbal flavor. Vanilla, grass, dried fruit. Nice!

Bottled 330ml (Beergium)
Brown-amber colour, small off-white head. Strong rum, raisins, alcohol, malts, toffee in the nose. Medium-bodied. Lots of sweet rum, fruits, brown sugar and alcohol. Maybe too a bit too much - rum overdose. Sippable anyhow.

Bottle from Beergium, bought in 2016. Amber with a small head. Aroma and taste of malt, something chemical, vanilla and some dried fruit. The body was medium and the carbonation soft. Not the best one from Dugges.

Bottled. Somewhat hazy deep amber colour with a mediumsized beige head. Aroma is sweet alcohol, dried fruits, rum, some caramel, toffee and ripe fruits. Flavour is kind of syrup, some sweet malts, alcohol, toffee, ripe fruits, dry fruits. Quite thick. Quite pleasant, even though it’s rather much on the sweet side of things.
