Brewed in 2022 for our friends at Chucks Hop Shop, this big old barleywine was aged for 13 months in Willet Bourbon barrels before we woke it up and put it into cans. It’s a deep red color with a mild body, sweet bourbon aroma leading to the flavor of burnt sugar, vanilla, & bourbon with balanced oak character.

From a pint can. Pours a clear pale coat with a slim finger of a tan head. Aromas of toffee and bourbon. Flavors are pretty sweet dark brown sugar. Tasty stuff on a snowy day in early March.

Looks like refried ass. Sticky, light toffee, medium bourbon, okay this actually works. Light fruitiness.

On tap at Chuck's CD, pours a clear amber, little head. Aroma brings out rich bourbon barrels, toffee, and brown sugar. Flavour is full of rich bourbon barrels, brown sugar, caramel and plenty of booze. A definite improvement on the base beer, which was also excellent.
