Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Winter Ale

This year’s release of B-Bomb is aged in 8–12-year-old American Oak bourbon barrels and is a blend of 9, 12, and 24-month old barrel-aged Winter Ale. B-Bomb achieves distinct bourbon, oak, cacao, leather, toffee, and dark coffee notes from its extended barrel aging and barrel blending. Each barrel contributes a different note, and combining each barrel to create a coherent tone is a distinct art and true pleasure. Please do enjoy this unique barrel-aged ale today but know that B-Bomb will age gracefully for at least another 5 years. Don’t Be Afraid To Be Abominable.

Down & Dirty: 2-Row Pale, Crystal-120, Munich, Roast Barley, Carafa-2, and Chocolate malts with Columbus, Willamette, and US Goldings hops.

FORMERLY KNOWN AS BOURBON ABOMINABLE

Aromas are black patent, molasses, roast, dark malt and cocoa. Flavors are similar but a little better than nose. It's on the sweet side but moderated. Roast comes out a little bit more and while leaning sweet is fairly balanced and drinkable. Curious to know what a 10 year old bottle would be like. Big beer.

Aus der Flasche (bbe 01.09.2025) im 2023-11 getrunken. Dieses wunderbare malzige Winterbier kommt mit einer Milchschokoladen-Aromen, Trockenfrüchten und Zucker-Melasse daher. Traumstoff!
