BARLEYWINE ALE AGED IN BOURBON AND CHERRY LIQUEUR BARRELS - 15.8% ABV
Employing techniques common to winemaking, our so-called Barleywinery project seeks to move beer barrel aging away from ballistic, hands-off approaches toward something more intentful, where various production inputs can manipulate the way any given barrel of beer “ages” over time. Last year we released Barleywinery Double Barrel V.S.O.J., our first packaged release from the then-experimental oxidation-arresting aging conditions. After another year in-barrel, this entry is a sizable step forward in our aim to produce balanced beers with the absolute highest levels of intensity and complexity without sacrificing drinkability. This single batch of extra-sweet Straight Jacket English-style Barleywine rested in a combination of bourbon and rye whiskey barrels for eighteen months before being rebarreled for an equal measure in French Cherry Liqueur (Cerise) casks. Each of the latter was dosed with a variety of supplemental fire-toasted French oaks. Wood-oven brioche, vanilla spice, and tart cherry emanate with each leggy swirl, while heaps of weapons-grade French oak keep this malty behemoth’s finish nice and tidy.
