Together with Five Points from London we brewed a 100% pilsner malt and Scotch ale yeast fermented barley wine, giving us a clean classic with a twist. Then we aged it on freshly emptied bourbon barrels, through time-travel and hibernation elevating the beer to a whole other level. Omnimatopoetic!
In January of 2019 we added to our squad of brewers here at Dugges. Rebecca started working with us. Previously, Rebecca had been working at Five Points in London. So, that we would do a beer together with them at some point in the future was a given. In August of 2019 Rebecca traveled back to London for the London Craft Beer Festival and around that festival we got the chance to brew that beer with Five Points. Naturally, we had to do a re-brew at our place. And, this is that re-brew. Well, one version of it at least. We brewed this beer but we also did three other version of it. Here’s to friends in beer!

Bottle at home, from an online peddler, 06/02/21 - the wee hours. Nose is sweet malts, caramel, fruit loaf, mellow barrel, grains, toffee fudge. Taste comprises caramel, light bourbon kiss, fruit cake, sugar melt, sweet malts. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced rising boost. Decent easy drinking barley wine, barrel is there but pretty light, good sipper.

Flaska från SB. Klar guldfärgad med vit krona. Smakar rent och sockersött av övermogna äpplen, marsipan, gula sultanas, Bourbon, fat, ek, Rom. Något större kropp, viss fatkaraktär, snäll hetta.
