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.

Bottle: Poured a dark hazy amber color ale with a large off-white foamy head with good retention and light lacing. Aroma of string dry caramelized malt notes with some oak, vanilla and bourbon notes is quite enticing. Taste is also a mix of caramelized malt notes with dry notes of oak and bourbon with some woody notes. Body is full with good carbonation with some warming alcohol notes also perceptible. Solid BA barleywine with great level of complexity.

Sweet, Bourbon², vanilla², near cloying sweetness, cherry liqueur. Full bodied doesn't come near, viscous as resin. Not very carbonated. Over the top Bourbon, it's too sweet by lightyears.

Can shared at Lucky Bamboo share. Pours a deep copper to brown with a finger of beige foam that lingers. Big boozy nose with fig, prune, date, cacao nib, vanilla and bourbon aromas that dominate the nose. Smooth on the palate with more fruit, cacao nib, vanilla and faint coconut and oak notes. Again, smooth on the finish with booze and vanilla alongside fall fruit. I don't really like barley wines, but I dig this a lot. --- Beer merged from original tick of Barrel Aged Institutionalized Barley Wine on 20 Apr 2019 at 08:45 - Score: 8

Small pour at Brewer's Republic. Pours a clear, bronze color, with a medium, foamy, tan head. The aroma is vanilla, smooth oak, pine, walnuts, and light cherry. Sweet and boozy, with a pleasant, mild bitterness. Heavy body, with a syrupy, slick palate. Nice, malt-forward barley wine, with great barrel character.
