BOURBON BARREL AGED IMPERIAL WINTER ALE
This year’s release of B-Bomb is aged in 8–12-year-old American Oak bourbon barrels and is a blend of 9, 12, and 24-month old barrel-aged Winter Ale. B-Bomb achieves distinct bourbon, oak, cacao, leather, toffee, and dark coffee notes from its extended barrel aging and barrel blending. Each barrel contributes a different note, and combining each barrel to create a coherent tone is a distinct art and true pleasure. Please do enjoy this unique barrel-aged ale today but know that B-Bomb will age gracefully for at least another 5 years. Don’t Be Afraid To Be Abominable.
Down & Dirty: 2-Row Pale, Crystal-120, Munich, Roast Barley, Carafa-2, and Chocolate malts with Columbus, Willamette, and US Goldings hops.
ABV: 13.5% IBU: 50
Color: Dark Black, Opaque
Aroma: Chocolate, toffee and other sweet aromatics, with oak, whiskey and cherry notes
Flavor: Intense sweetness and slightly bitter, with definite lingering sweetness in thick body with moderate carbonation; slightly mouthwatering and warming
Availability: Released November 2021, limited.
Fresh Range: Age this beer, or try one now...go on.

Dark sweet malty with lots of chocolate, fudge and toffee, thick dense mouthfeel, bourbon kissed dark malty close. Lovely.

Roasty, spicy and dry with some barrel notes, coffee, bourbon and vanilla. Quite balanced.
