Barleywine Ale Aged in Bourbon Barrels with Maple Syrup
This dry English Barleywine, created with our friends at Chicago Maple, rested for one year in freshly emptied maple syrup bourbon barrels before being sweetened with that same syrup just prior to packaging. Subtle maple aromatics and flavor complement the classic vanilla and toffee notes we’ve come to expect without detriment to balance. Enjoy now or store cold

Burk från Beer Republic, 2021. Snygg, klar rubinröd/kastanjebrun med hög ljusbeige krona. Straight Jacket i all sin ära, här med massa lönnsirap. Något kladdigt, sockersött, en sån där träig ton som lönnsirap kan ge, typ varmt bastuträ (tack Petrus). Ligger nästan kvar som en hinna på tänderna - det som finns kvar av dem iallafall. Visst är det gott och välgjort, men det är ett steg ner från vanliga, som ju är så oerhört bra som den är.

12oz can pours out cola brown topped with a sand head. Nose is nice sweet maple syrup barrel notes rich caramel toffee malts. Taste is more of the nice sweet malts rich maple plenty barrel and some spice.

Gorgeous dark copper colour, looks thick, syrupy. Smell is oldschool barleywine: malty, dried fruit, and a good amount of maple and light bourbon thrown in. Smooth, rich body. Taste is the smell with more. Raisins, caramel, maple, bourbon, more maple.

Pours a deep, reddish-brown, with mid-sized head. Aroma is maple, bourbon, vanilla. Flavor follows. Very, very sweet and smooth. ABV is pretty well-hidden from flavor and aroma.

Can from Tavour. Pours dark mahogany with a slight, transient tan head. Maple wafts from the pour. Approaching full bodied. Flavor is maple, heat, barley malt, treacle and notes of wood. Slightly astringent, yet sweet. Bitter? Yes, but heat or hop? It is quite tasty ale. Excellent.

Dec/06/2021, Dang I might like this even more than regular SJ but maybe I'm just fiending a maple old fashioned right now. Thick thick maple flavor on bourbon bil love. The beer itself is medium light body but check out that head. Damn delicious.

Can. Pours clear hazel, small beige head, good lacing. Aroma is maple, toffee, hint of whiskey, vanilla. Flavor is medium plus sweet, light bitter. Medium body. A bit less syrup in the post would have been nice.

5 oz from Orange & Brew. Brown beer with ruby highlights, thin ring of foam around rim. Sweet maple smell. Taste is big on maple, too. Smooth, smooth, no bitterness. Thick mouthfeel disguises the alcohol. It is very close to simply maple syrup with a slight kick.
