| Description: | The decorated brewers at AleSmith took their 5x GABF-winning American Barleywine base and let it mature in port wine casks to deepen the complexity of its already layered tones. Each medium-bodied pour is like a taste of expertly-made bread pudding drizzled with a rich toffee sauce. Hazelnutty caramel notes melt into nuances of silky vanilla custard, bread crusts, and booze-plumped raisins. The port’s vinous influence comes through in whispers of juicy Bing cherries and a subtly tannic oaky finish. 13.89%ABV | |
