Town Hall E.T. Wee

Town Hall E.T. Wee. Wee Heavy Ale aged in Elmer T. Lee bourbon barrels. 8% ABV. Minneapolis Town Hall Brewery, Minneapolis, MN.

I bought this one during Barrel aged Week last year, and sat on it for a little bit. Here come the notes:

Here's one I've never been able to take home in growler format. If I had, you'd have heard about it already.

Utter darkness, slim brown head, soon gone.

In the nose: Sweetness, first, then bourbon. Vanilla, cherry, charcoal. Intense bourbon flavors swallowing up a malty Scottish style. More flavors eke out, some molasses, more fruit. Just nothing but nice.

In the mouth: Deep, dark, malty, delicious. Mmm. Dark fruit, fig and raisin, sweetness and darkness plus bourbon means tasty.
