On tap at the brewpub. 12.5% abv. Could not get a clear story behind this beer but appears to be a blend of several 1, 2 and 3 year wood aged beers. Cloudy chocolate brown beer. Lots of mellow bourbon and chocolate. Some rye aromatics as well. Very full on beer with spirity warmth in the finish.

On tap at the brewpub. An oak-aged barleywine. Pours clear ruby and purple in color with a medium white head. It has a big black licorice aroma but also a huge oakiness. Very peppery on the tongue. This is like a cross between an Imperial Stout and a Barleywine without the dark color. It has very big bourbon flavors and a super big heat. The flavor is filled with a large molasses sugar taste. This is just an incredible blend of flavors. highly aromatic.
