Barrel-Aged Barleywine
The soul of Barleywine channeled through vivifying bourbon barrels and blended with an alchemist's touch. Summon notes of caramel, stone fruit, brown sugar, and vanilla with each generous swirl.

Taster showing deep amber with sparse white foam.
The nose shows moderately intense sweet astringent notes of tea and light bready malts.
The palate is lightly carbonated and light bodied. Lightly sweet with a strong alcoholic burn. Lightly flavors of bourbon and bready malts. Sweet caramel and bread notes for a very long finish.

Can from Tavour as Straight Jacket. Pours dark and ruddy amber with a transient, but large, beige/tan head. Aroma of toffee and bourbon. Full bodied. There is definitely head. Flavor is toffee, bourbon, and hints of floral and stone fruit. Not dry, but heat obscures sweet. Excellent and tasty sipper.

Can from Revolution. It pours clear dark reddish - brown with decent yellow - tan head. The aroma is massive bourbon right in you face, intoxicating, sweet, sticky, vanilla, touch of coconut, bourbon biscuits, toasty, unctuous and oily, toffee, fudge, dried fruits, date, raisin, sultana and fruit cake. The taste is slick, sweet, sticky, oily, unctuous, toffee, fudge, heavy hit of bourbon, brashness which dissipates, warming booze, big vanilla vibes, vanilla ice cream, dried fruits, raisin, sultana, date, plum pudding, bourbon biscuits, toasted brown sugars and some warming spice with a slick, toffee bourbon finish. Fulsome body, fine and oily mouth feel. Sweet, unctuous and oily action. So much Bourbon filth. Works well for a sippin ale.
