Barrel-Aged Rye Wine

Singular in heft and layered with symphonic grace. Lofty notes of maple, brown sugar, and candied pecan suggest sweetness before a dry, rye-forward terminus.

Can at CBJ Tasting. Opaque dark amber. Thin foamy white head. Aroma had sour edged dsrk fruit and booze. Flavourwise it's similar with a boozy burn. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Dece.

Bottleshare at CBJ. Thanks to Cloin. A mild haze on this amber beer, small pale tan head. Smooth palate, a modest dryness, decent fine carbonation. Soft caramel malts, nice rye tang. Lovely bourbon barrel, spicy ripe fruity goodness, oaky vanilla. Spicy finish. Pretty fucken tasty.

Smooth, malty and caramely with some rye notes, toffee, hints of prunes, figs, raisins, syrup, woody oakiness, barrel, earthiness and hints of vanilla. Nicely balanced and complex slow sipper, has mellowed compared to previous vintages fresh

On tap at BeerTemple. Pours dark brown with a light beige head. Tons of rye bread, brown sugar, and bourbon on the nose. Flavour has tons of rich rye bread, brown sugar, boozy bourbon barrels. Very nice, but very intense.
