A blend of double barrel-aged barleywine ales.
Electric Roads is inspired by the iconic, warm sound of the Fender Rhodes electric piano. This blend of barrels showcases notes of toffee, milk chocolate, vanilla, raisin, and apricot marmalade, with the rich toffee tone resonating from the nose all the way through the finish. Electric Roads contains multiple double-barrel-aged barleywine threads that boost the ABV, bolster the oak character, and round out the intensity via additional oxidation from racking one barrel to another. This is the first Electric Roads blend to include Munichwine as a blending component.
Blend #3 (PPB-3Q401):
75% DeJohnette, 25% Pike (barrel #233) aged 12 months in Old Fitzgerald barrels and 18 months in Port barrels
DeJohnette (barrel #251) aged 16 months in Old Fitzgerald barrels and 14 months in Basil Hayden barrels
Canterbury Scene Blend (barrel #268) aged 7 months in Calumet 15 Year barrels
Pike (barrel #269) aged 12 months in Cognac barrels and 6 months in 1792 barrels
Mahavishnu (barrel #283) aged 15 months in Heaven Hill barrels and 4 months in Widow Jane 15 Year barrels
Mahavishnu (barrel #316) aged 19 months in Willett Family Reserve barrels
