A Silent Pursuit is the first Munichwine to be bottled/released, ever. Munichwine is a new sub-style of barleywine that I have created quietly at Private Press throughout the pandemic. The genesis of this new beer style is rooted in my admiration for both barleywine and Munich malt. A Silent Pursuit was Aged in both bourbon and California grape brandy barrels, and reminds me of spirit-soaked bread pudding, topped with toasted nuts, flambéed bananas, and covered in a date caramel sauce.

Feels more like a barrel aged doppelbock. Sweet, malty and earthy with some bourbon heat, oak and brandy notes, some prunes and raisin
