There are many storms out there, all of them perfect in their own way. But there is only one Mother of All Storms and it only happens in Pacific City, Oregon. Based on Stormwatcher's Winterfest, our English-style barleywine, Mother of All Storms spent many months aging in Kentucky bourbon barrels. Now at its peak, Mother of All Storms delivers deep flavors of toasted malt, bourbon and oak. The finish rewards with whispers of vanilla, toffee and caramel. Best enjoyed with gusts exceeding 60 mph.

Bottle (2011 edition) @home, from my first trade with Richiesd in 2012, big thanks! Deep dark brown color. Beige head with short retention. Aroma’s boasting of bourbon, sweetness, vanilla, some dried fruit, alcohol, booze, caramel, perhaps a tiny bit oxydized. Retronasal it’s boozy/alcoholic, sweet, vanilla, bourbon. Flavor is rather sweet, sticky, alcoholic. Strong alcohol feel. Medium to full bodied. Long finish, slightly woody. Lovely stuff.
