When they told me we were getting a salad bar at Bluegrass Brewing Company, the first thing I did was laugh, the second thing I did was weep with utter humiliation and shame. The third thing I did was a tribute beer. This American style barleywine has what any early bird special geriatric drinker wants, big sweet caramel malt and fruity notes balanced with several charges of floral and citrusy American hops. Aged for over half a year to mellow...I’m referring to the
barleywine here, not the garbanzo beans. ABV 11.0% IBU 90.0

On tap. Slightly hazy reddish amber with a small yellowish head. Lovely nutty aroma with some caramel and a refined spicy hoppiness. Full-bodied, sweet caramel and nuts with an underlying dry hoppiness that balances throughout. The alcohol is present in the finish but never becomes boozy. Lovely. 181210

Draft. A hazy red beer with a rim of beige head. The aroma has strong notes of fruit and a good deal of alcohol, as well as a light touch of perfume. The flavor is sweet wtih strong notes of malt and alcohol as well as medium notes of caramel, and light notes of wood, leading to a dry and alcoholic finish.
