King Elizabeth that spent a year in bourbon barrels. All hail Elizabeth, the emperor of our production facility in the Bronx. Notice how regal and noble he is. One of his eyes doesn't work and it's mostly closed. With this barleywine we pay our respects to the King.

8oz pour at Haymaker pours a translucent brown, ring of white head, light legs. Big cocoa nose, malt and caramel, some bourbon and wood and booze. Witchhazel on the tongue, prickly and its not just the booze (but it is also the booze), cocoa and caramel and even some coconutty bourbon. Full bodied, sticky finish.

$5.20 can, WW. Going to drink the regular and barrel aged side by side. Pours murky brown, darker than the non-barrel, larger head similar to cola, that disappears quickly. Nose is heavy toffee, bourbon, earth, wood. Flavor is bourbon, wood, caramel, lightly sweet cola, vanilla, chocolate. Lots of flavor, not overly boozy, but obviously more boozy than the regular. More flavor here than the original, not just the bourbon notes.
