Made from two row and malted wheat, Bourbon County Brand Wheatwine debuts this year. As the first recipe to veer from the original Imperial Stout since Barleywine in 2013, Wheatwine displays a deep amber color, lighter than its counterparts and acts a true medium to convey the characteristics of our 4+ year old Heaven Hill Bourbon barrels. Wheatwine overflows with flavors of caramel, vanilla, butterscotch, and toffee.

RB backlog. Intense woody grains, raisins, dried figs, caramel. Intense sweet start, toasty, sweetness builds up, becomes tart, warm and sweet finish. Not my thing, but quite good.

I miss bcbbarleywine, this is smooth but definitely boozy, needs to sit somewhere for like... A decade. Caramel toffee are there, alongside tons of fresh bourbon. Definite a wine of wheat.
