Figgy Pudding is an English-style barleywine brewed with black strap molasses and a blend of English pale and specialty malts. Extended maturation in freshly-emptied brandy barrels and gentle spicing with Ceylon cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice infuses this complex sipper with warming holiday flavors.

2010 Bottle via a trade with DA. Pours with a murky, copper brown body with a small tan head. Aroma is pretty insane. Barrel, brandy evergreen, pine, nutmeg, dates, figs, dark fruit, and pie cherries. Flavor is very smooth, dates, earthy, light funk, barrel, brandy and caramel. A bit of a nutty finish. Very smooth (especially for the ABV). Lively bubbles with creamy carbonation. I need to try more stuff from these guys!
