Our 2024 Barley Wine is an expression of our Wisconsin Terroir. Our Diploma Master Brewer, Daniel Carey, hand selected the Wisconsin Chinook hops that are the signature of this powerful beast of a brew. All perfectly balanced with the sweetness of selected Wisconsin malt. Savor this very big beer at 45° F and it will reward you with an open embrace.

Pours a clear reddish-copper color with a medium foamy light beige head that diminishes gradually to a dense film. Small patches of lace. Aroma of roast malt, fruit and hops. Medium to full body with flavors of caramel malt, ripe fruit and earthy hops. The finish is slightly boozy and sweet with a malty aftertaste. Good Barley Wine all around.

Aromas are malt, fruit and leather. Flavors are similar to nose, excellent balance between bitter, sweet and slightly soft carbonation. Add in a bit of metallic. Super smooth. Extremely drinkable for a barley wine.

12 ounce can from Festival Darboy, 11/24/24. Clear red, thin tan head, average retention. Aroma of toffee, caramel, cherry, citrus. Taste is cherry, toffee, caramel, hops. Almost piney. Well balanced. Nice.

12oz can. Rather great Barleywine. American I'd say, with the big hop tone, but enough malt depth to have some English touches as well. Big, but has some great balance, quite clean for the style and ABV. Not unlike Bigfoot. Really excellent stuff.
