Rust is a colossal double-barrel-aged wheatwine. It rested for ten months in a rye whiskey barrel (a store pick from our friends at Bob's Lake City Liquors). We then racked it into a Buffalo Trace barrel for an additional fourteen months.

Poured from the tap @ MBCC 2023 (finally adding my notes). Very dark brown with small beige head. Nice wheat wine quality with rye and bourbon, great balance.
