This year's Rye BBT blend was narrowed down to barrels which included our O.W.K., Vibes, and Derivation 3 recipes. Derivation Blend #3 is one of my favorites and that recipe just works in Rye barrels. It was brewed specifically to age in Rye Barrels and to hopefully place in this blend. The barrels in which these recipes aged-in were Willett 4 and 5 Year Rye, and Still630 4 Year Rye. As with the previous blend of Rye BBT, these are our favorite Rye Barrels for our recipes and their youth is essential for us to age as long as we do, to develop our flavors, and to create the pieces we need for the final blend.

Bottle at Side Project. Pours black with small tan that diminishes quickly. The aroma is strong chocolate, rye, licorice, wood. Thick body, chewy, dark chocolate, rye bourbon, roasted malt, wood, cloying sweetness, enjoyed this.
