un4gettable is one of our final beers to be put into barrels at our former home, famous for having our brewhouse and cellar that spanned across 10 storeys. This luscious barley wine has been patiently aging in rum and bourbon barrels for over 14 months.

un4gettable exhibits luscious flavours of fig, sherry, raisin, dates, hazelnut and biscuit. Despite an ABV of 12.6%, the beer is perfectly balanced to showcase the complex flavours without the alcohol being overpowering.

Bottleshare at CBJ. Thanks to Tips. Clear darkish amber, no real head. Light and semi dry palate, decent fine carbonation. Slightly thin bodied malts, an unsweet toffee and somewhat tired tasting caramel. Mildly spicy finish. Okay
