FORGOTTEN BRILLIANCE - BATCH 2

IMPORTANT: Shipping FAQ & Prop 65 Warning

Barleywine

ABV: 12.3%
Format: 500ml bottle

CARAMEL CHEW. RED FRUIT. ORANGE MARMALADE.

Welcome back to our original barleywine, Forgotten Brilliance. As a tribute to the big, hoppy American barleywines as well as vintage English ales of yore, this ale features Centennial, Amarillo, and Cascade hops over a hearty canvas of Maris Otter and English crystal malts. This second batch went through a two-hour boil, creating a sturdy backbone that will help this beauty age gracefully for decades to come. Complex and bold, aromas of toffee and allspice pleasantly greet the nose. Flavors of caramel chew and almond cream intermingle with pine and grapefruit notes. Its enchanting copper color, medium body, and sturdy bitterness make for an experience not to be forgotten.
