Christian Moerlein Brewing Co. was founded 162 years ago in Cincinnati’s historic Brewery District by Beer Baron Christian Moerlein. Eleven years ago, greater Cincinnati resident Greg Hardman purchased Christian Moerlein in order to bring back Cincinnati’s grand brewing traditions. Eleven/162 is a smooth, malt-driven Scottish Wee Heavy Ale, meticulously aged in Smooth Ambler Bourbon Barrels. The sweet notes of grain and dark fruit combine with the oak and bourbon to produce a beer worthy of celebrating these two auspicious anniversaries. While this strong Scottish ale was historically bottled in 6 oz. bottles - hence the term ’wee heavy’ - we’ve opted to provide enough for you to celebrate with friends.

Many thanks to my SecretSanta nimbleprop for this bottle! Black currant in the nose, wood. Fantastic deep Bourbon malty beginning. Deep, round and dry. Intense round and malty with lots of smooth wood. Bourbon without sweetness. Fresh wood, deep. Intense without being too alcoholic. Great intense deep malty Bourbon aftertaste. Fascinating!

22oz bottle pours a clear copper with a ring of white head. Nose has a little cake, some caramel, fruit, toast, fig. Flavor has malt, caramel, mild barrel, more fig. Medium bodied. Scary easy to drink.
