Product description
Behemoth of a Barley Wine is a bold and intensely flavoured beer that showcases the craft and creativity of Behemoth Brewing Company. This limited-edition release is a masterful blend of rich malts and the deep, complex character imparted by ageing in bourbon barrels. This beer is designed for those who appreciate the robust and warming nature of a barley wine, elevated by the added depth of bourbon influences.
Nose: The nose is rich and enticing, with a strong aroma of toffee, caramel, and dark fruits such as fig and raisin. The bourbon barrel ageing adds layers of vanilla, oak, and a hint of smoky char, creating a complex and inviting bouquet that promises a robust drinking experience.
Palate: On the palate, this barley wine is full-bodied and intense, with a rich malt sweetness balanced by the warming notes of bourbon. Flavours of caramel, molasses, and dark chocolate dominate, while the bourbon barrels contribute additional complexity with notes of vanilla, toasted oak, and a subtle spiciness. The alcohol content is high, but it is well-integrated, adding warmth without overwhelming the other flavours.
Finish: The finish is long and warming, with lingering notes of caramel, dark fruit, and a touch of bourbon spice. The oak influence persists, leaving a satisfying dryness that balances the beer’s sweetness.
Behemoth of a Barley Wine is a beer for those who appreciate bold flavours and the complexity that comes with barrel ageing. It’s a perfect sipper for cooler evenings, and its robust character makes it an excellent candidate for further ageing. Whether enjoyed now or cellared for a few more years, this beer is sure to impress lovers of strong ales and bourbon barrel-aged brews.
