Sample #26 at FoBAB, listed only as "English Style Barleywine aged in bourbon barrels." And at 13% ABV. This may be my last post. A full-on barley wine nose. Can't fault that at all. Sips settle in like a fine barley wine, full of malt and alcohol. And, since the PA is playing "Closing Time" by Semisonic, I believe they are trying to get us to leave.
