Inspired by the heavily malt-driven flavors of northern England, Bleeding is our latest boozy behemoth of a barleywine – aged in bourbon barrels and conditioned on locally-sourced honey, for a well-rounded mouthfeel and a massive, nuanced array of flavors in every sip! Despite clocking in at a reality-altering 12%, this beer delivers a smooth, dry finish that makes it an all-too-perfect sipper for the dread and darkness of the Finnish winter!

Dry malty aroma, slightly sweet malts. Some nuts. Finer licorice and coconut hint of notes probably from the bourbon
Flavor is very complex. Caramelly malty nutty base with finer notes of coconut and wood.
Dry and very well balanced. The barrelling is discrete with most of the flavor being barley wine ish. This is a very good English style barley wine
