This unique blend consists of five of our Barleywine recipes, each aged in different barrels. These include a 28-month Eagle Rare barrel, a 26-month Blanton's barrel, a 23-month 14-year George Dickel barrel, a 33-month Rock Filter barrel, and a 27-month Black Hammer Rock Filter barrel. This blend features a double mash Barleywine, mixed grain Barleywine, honey Barleywine, maple Barleywine, and Vienna malt Barleywine, which make up the threads of this English style. Waves of barrel tones, leathery oak, figs, dried dark fruits, cocoa, holiday spices, roasted nuts, and caramel can all be found in this mahogany liquid.

On tap at Forager, pours a deep dark brown / near-black with a tiny head. Aroma is extremely rich and complex, with intense bourbon barrels, dark dried fruits, toffee, and brown sugar. Flavour is extremely rich and complex, with intense brown sugar, dark dried fruits, toffee, and deep bourbon barrels. Rich, borderline too sweet but brings so much complexity. Incredible.

Tap at the Peders Stouts V5/Forager TTO event - Dark sweet malty with complex layers of caramel and toffee, some cocoa, honeycomb, dried dark fruit shred, full body and mouthfeel, nutty accents and spices combine with rich bourbon into the warming close. Exquisite.
