This oak-aged hybrid has been gaining popularity over the past few years and is now available year-round.
For Burton Baton, we brew two "threads," or batches, of beer: an English-style old ale and an imperial IPA.
After fermenting the beers separately in our stainless tanks, they're transferred and blended together in one of our large oak tanks. Burton Baton sits on the wood for about a month.
When enjoying the Burton Baton, you'll find an awesome blend of the citrus notes from Northwestern hops melding with woody, vanilla notes from the oak. The wood also tends to mellow the 10% ABV of Burton, so tread cautiously!

Pours unclear, darker amber. Rather small white head. Smell is rich, intense creamy maltyness. Hoppy, bitter ( pine) , nice ! Taste is full, old-school DIPA style. Full, oaky ( mild ) bitterness is milder than expected. Full on hoppy ( pine, orange ). Thick body and medium low carbo. Lovely beer !

Small bottle. Reddish orange color. Grapefruit, red berries, oak and honey in the soft aroma. Sweet raisinny flavor with oak and red berries. Mandarine curacao. Syrupy mouthfeel. Alcohol is incredibly well hidden. Hopbitter oily raisinny aftertaste. Excellent!

Bottle from the Q Club Soho, Hong Kong. Poured a clear medium amber with a mostly lasting thin white head and some clingy lace. The aroma is toffee caramel malt, sweet sugary fruit, light hop. The flavour is moderate to strong sweet, with a smooth rich, toffee apple malt, light warm boozy alcohol palate. Medium medium bodied with to soft carbonation.

A single 12 oz bottle gladly obtained at a HEB in Burleson, TX in the early fall last year. Cooled off and ready for the test. The beer that is. Going into a tulip glass I am hit by the scent before the liquid touches the bottom. Wafting up I get wood, the oak I assume, and an interesting honey and clover. Th color is an impressive red-orange finished by a thin, eggshell brown head that is steadily replenished. I taste now. Wow, this is pretty fine. The oak wrapping around a fairly mild ipa presence, lightly hoppy with grass and straw. A nice little toffee sweetness at the end. Almost a Belgian ale influence here. I have no other brew to compare it against, really unique. I hope I can find this again.

Bottle. Pours cloudy dark orange with small foamy off-white head, woodsy aroma, sweetish woodsy taste with medium bitterness following up, alcohol undertones, thin body, long bitter finish with slight alcohol aftertaste. Tastes more like a triple ale than an IPA.
