About this release

A Barley Wine that has aged for 575 days in First Fill Bourbon barrels from Bardstown, Kentucky. This maturation gives the beer a rich, sweet and smooth bourbon flavor, perfectly balanced with the malty base. A unique experience for lovers of barrel-aged beers. Eggens, the Dutch brewery from Groningen, has once again demonstrated with this barrel-aged variant why they specialize in characterful and flavorful beers. This Barley Wine is proof of their passion for the brewing craft and their desire to push boundaries. With an alcohol content of 11.0 percent, this is a powerful and full-bodied beer that makes an impression. The long maturation in bourbon barrels from Kentucky is crucial to the end result. During this nearly two-year process, the beer takes on the subtle and warm characteristics of the former whiskey barrels. This results in a very well-balanced beer in which the sweet bourbon influences and the full, malty base complement each other perfectly. This is a beer for moments of rest and reflection, where you take the time to discover the layers of flavor and texture. With an Untappd rating of 4.15 out of 5 stars, this is a recommendation for anyone who loves sophisticated, barrel-aged beers.
