Montgomery Brewing Company Cooper Barrel-aged Barleywine.
12.3 % ABV, 61 IBU. Montgomery Brewing, Montgomery, MN.
Clear, dark crimson color, slim off-white head.
In the nose: fruity, vinous, majorly malty. Beautiful barleywine expressions coming forth, with barrel aged sensibilities unfolding. Smells like brandy and bourbon had a baby.
In the mouth: Hoppy goodness spills out first, citrus and pine, wrapped up in dark fruit, vanilla, oak and caramel. Cherries and berries mix with grapes and hoppy delights. Sweet fruit and deep, dark malt blended with the barrel. Bold and strong. And strong. Citrus flavors dominate, barrel aging creeps on in.
Mighty fine barleywine right here.
