Flying Mouflan unlocks bold notes of hops dipped in candi sugar and rolled in cocoa nibs. We mature our barleywine ale in oak barrels for over 6 months to soak in tangy raisin and infuse vanilla and chocolate decadence.

Admin Note: Labeled as "Oak Barrel Aged" but was in fact oak bourbon barrel-aged. Released in 2016.

Sampled from bottle at THT May. Near clear reddish, white head. Sweet grainy corn bourbon, fruity in a dried fruit sense. Sweet, medium bitter. Over medium body, greasy. Low carbonation. Pretty nice.
