A double bourbon barrel-aged barleywine-style ale aged 12 months in freshly dumped bourbon barrels and finished in additional bourbon barrels for another 8 months

Mashed with local barley malt along with a unique and complex blend of the world’s very finest caramel and crystal malts. Fermented with our preferred house ale yeast for a robust, layered and full bodied drinking experience. Conditioned for 12 months in freshly dumped bourbon barrels and finished in additional bourbon barrels for another 8 months.

Dripping with sticky dried fruits, barrel depth, nutty nuances and complemented by swaths of smoked vanilla, crème brulee and meadowfoam honey cotton candy. What has become a mainstay in our barrel-aged barleywine program, this version of our beloved Periodic Motion is an example of decadent nuanced excess. With two separate maturation periods in bourbon barrels, this release is all about our skills showcasing stickiness and a celebration of our favorite brown liquor known as bourbon.

Had this at Toronado. Hazy, chestnut colour, not much head. Soft, fruity, some caramel notes. Robust tannins and alcohol that balance the sugars. This is good shit.
