This American-style barley wine is a unique take on our second ever seasonal from 2014. Laid to rest in Town Branch Rye barrels over four years ago, this ale has been developing flavor and interacting with the oak and residual whiskey ever since. You are greeted with bold sweet notes of malted barley, and left with the strong peppery finish of the finest rye whiskeys.

Taster at the Destin Craft Bar. Pours a clear, red color, with a small, fleeting head. The aroma is whole grains, rye bourbon, oak, vanilla, bitters, and mandarin oranges. Sweet and boozy, with a grainy bitterness. Medium to heavy body, with a syrupy, sharp, acidic mouthfeel. Pretty nice.
