Olde School Barleywine

Bold, yet smooth! Fermented with dates and figs, this bone-crushing barleywine has a unique flavor.

The concept for this beer came from an old cellerman’s manual Sam came across (for more on that, check out the video below).

At about 15% ABV, this beer is a great candidate for aging. Over time, the beer dries out and the pit fruit flavors come forward and the hops recede.
