Behemoth barley wine aged for a year in bourbon barrels.

We put our American style barley wine in bourbon barrels for 12 to 16 months. The intense hop character gets rounded out and complimented with the natural vanilla, coconut, and bourbon notes extracted from the barrel aging process.

12oz (thx, Marc-Olivier L.!) @ 🏡 Appearance: copper with a beige head. Aroma: American oak, caramel, candies, dark fruits, raisins. Taste: very nice fruity notes, a bit creamy, moderately sweet, probably some hoppy character, but not that noticeable as in the most of American barleywines. Overall: very good one.

Bottle at the July 2023 DC RB Tasting. Poured an amber, dark caramel color, white head. Aroma was big boozy caramel, sweet malts, almost no hop character. Boozy, but tolerable as it warmed. Bourbon galore in this. Vanilla, coconut, bourbon.

12oz bottle pours a murky caramel brown with a ring of beige head. Nose is big booze caramel, malt, raisin, date, and plenty of bourbon. Flavor is sticky brown sugar and caramel, booze, Bourbon but also rum too. Chewy malt and root beer barrels. Full bodied, sticky, boozy finish.

6th Floor bottleshare with the usual suspects. Thanks to Tips. Just a light haze on this amber beer, small cream colour head Smooth palate, softish, decent fine carbonation. Soft but rich toffee laden malts, a little creamy malts. Ripe bourbon barrel fruits. A little spice on the end. Slips down easy for its 13.6% Leaves a ripe fruity bourbon linger. Dangerously drinkable but lacks the spark to be top echelon.
