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.

Bottle. Dark brown body, beige head. Excellent cocoa and coconut aroma, slightly dusty. Fantastic, fantastic taste, coconut, vanilla, clean maltiness, warming, sweetish, mild cinnamon, vague cocoa, warming, silky as fuck. Just some light alcohol keeping it from perfection.

2017 bottle. Dark brown, rich coffee, bourbon, wood, silky, contemplative. Rich, bourbony, coffee, dripping with wood tannins, very complex, but also nuanced, delicious. Probably should have bought more than one, huh.
