Aged in 2nd use oak bourbon barrels. The love that went into this beer is indescribable, but we will try. We started with a rich grain bed full of specialty malts to give this beer the biggest and most flavorful body we could imagine. Then we added in a profile of hops the compliment the flavors, but without adding any bittering taste. Olde Ale then went into oak bourbon barrels for months, where it developed complex vanilla and bourbon notes. This beer was finally put into 22 oz bottles and then dressed with custom, hand-branded wood labels. Each bottle of this beer holds a little of our hearts, and now we’re giving it to you. Don’t make us regret this.
