What Our Editors Thought
“Direct and no-frills aroma with very subtle esters, almost altbier-like if it weren’t for the bourbon notes. Similarly punctual in the flavor, semisweet with focused upper midtone malt notes that exude precision.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Caramel, toffee, honey, citrus aroma with only a hint of the rye barrel. The warming whiskey reveals itself when sipped along with treacle, caramel, toffee, and a complex malt profile.”
What the Brewers Say
“English barleywine aged for 12 months in Blanton’s barrels.”
