Rye Barleywine Our 12th anniversary brew is a Rye Barleywine. Checking in at 10.2% abv, Twelve is being released in July and through the end of the year.
Made from 50% Rye Malt and 50% Barley Malt, this strong ale is extremely viscous. The rye adds a tantalizing note of flavor on the palate with a hint of tartness you’ve come to expect from Rye.
Slightly warm when its young, the beer will age very well, perhap 5 years or more. We’re guessing that peak taste will be in the 1 to 2 year old range, with 3 and 4 not far behind. Be sure to lay some down in your collection.
Best With:
With an invigorating warming quality and a robust alcoholic content, barley wines are the ultimate night cap beers. The round, viscous body of barley wine and its fruity complexity enable it to pair well with fresh vanilla ice cream. Some experts also recommend pairing a rich barley wine with a strong Cuban cigar.
