<center><h1>Bourbon Barleywine</h1></center>
<center>A sipping beer to the core, Barleywine by itself is a traditional British digestif. After months of maturation in Bourbon barrels, our barleywine mellows thoroughly, with a luxuriously rich mouthfeel and a soft, rounded finish. Caramel malts shine through on this copper hued ale with hints of vanillin imparted by the toasted oak barrels, making Bourbon Barleywine a decadent accompaniment to sweets, or a dessert all by itself.</center>

#### Our Thoughts
Today we have "Bourbon Barleywine" which is a British-Style Barley Wine Ale that could be compared to a Very Acholic IPA. With an ABV value of 13.3 this beverage is stronger than most wines. This isn't for your beer pong games! This is a slow and steady drink. This beer is meant for the drinker with a distinguished taste for bitterness.

#### British-Style Barley Wine Ale
British-style barley wines range from tawny copper to dark brown in color and have a full body and high residual malty sweetness. Complexity of alcohols and fruity-ester characters are often high and counterbalanced by the perception of low to medium bitterness and extraordinary alcohol content. Hop aroma and flavor may be minimal to medium. English type hops are often used but not necessary for this style. Low levels of diacetyl may be acceptable. Caramel and some characters indicating oxidation, such as vinous sometimes sherry-like aromas andor flavors, may be considered positive. Chill haze is allowable at cold temperatures.
