What Our Editors Thought
“Toasty burnt brown sugar, deep caramel, light oaky tannins, subtle citrus tones in the aroma. Smooth in the sip as those citrus notes high point the caramel. Incredibly smooth yet lively.”
What Our Panel Thought
“On the nose, subtle chocolate, vanilla, and leather support caramel and toffee notes. An earthy, citrus-like bitterness in the finish tempers the sweet, somewhat decadent, malt flavors.”
What the Brewers Say
“Malty English barleywine aged in bourbon barrels.”
