Double barrel-aged blend of barleywine-style ales.
Electric Roads is inspired by the iconic warm sound of the Fender Rhodes electric piano. This blend of barrels showcases notes of toffee, maple cream, vanilla, almond, dark sweet cherry, and dried apricot. The rich toffee tone resonates from the nose all the way through the comforting finish. Electric Roads used multiple double-barrel-aged barleywine threads that boosted the ABV, bolstered the oak character, and rounded out the intensity via additional oxidation from racking one barrel to another.
Blend:
DeJohnette (barrel #012) aged 14 months in Old Fitzgerald barrels
Bartz (barrel #091) aged 7 months in Elijah Craig barrels
Mahavishnu (barrel #095) aged 7 months in Weller barrels and 7 months in Elijah Craig barrels
DeJohnette (barrel #096) aged 8 months in Blanton's barrels and 6 months in Elijah Craig barrels
DeJohnette (barrel #098) aged 8 months in Blanton's barrels and 6 months in Baker's barrels
DeJohnette (barrel #099) aged 8 months in Blanton's barrels and 6 months in 1792 barrels
Mahavishnu (barrel #100) aged 7 months in Weller barrels and 6 months in Baker's barrels
