Winston Salem, NC
What Our Editors Thought
“Inky black malt notes sharpen the wooden staves in the nose. In the sip, soft chocolate sweetness buffered by layers of caramel and an even-keeled round bitterness offer dessert pleasure without losing shape.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Subdued dark fruit and sherry notes. Sip is more imperial stout than barleywine. Milk chocolate, light toast, light caramel, light vanilla oak, sweet and light booze.”
What the Brewers Say
“Blend of black barleywine and imperial stout, both aged in Weller bourbon barrels.”
