This is not a chill beer. It's not even really a beer. It's more a practice in not being bound by convention and truly creating something.
We've taken what is already big, boozy Wee Heavy-styled barleywine and applied madness to it. We took the second runnings from the mash (rare), sent them to be distilled (unheard-of) by Latitude 55, aged the resulting spirit on oak (excessive), and then blended it back into the original beer base beer (preposterous).
So, a fortified barleywine? At this point we really should say that in terms of something being hard to describe, this is it. So, you should probably just drink it to understand what we are on about.
