About this release

English-style Barleywine brewed in honor of Fremont's 6000th batch. This barleywine has been aged for 16 months in 10-15 year old bourbon barrels and brewed with English floor-malted barley and noble hops. Expect deep layers of caramel, toffee, wood notes and warm bourbon aromas. A rich, complex beer that shines now but will continue to develop with age. With an alcohol content of 11.9 percent, Brew 6000 offers a full, warming experience that matches the ambition of this milestone batch. Fremont Brewing from Seattle is known for their exceptional barrel-aged beers, and this creation shows exactly why. The extended aging in used bourbon barrels adds important complexity, with American oak notes seamlessly blending with classic English maltiness. This is a beer for those who love full, layered flavors. The deep caramel notes and toffee characteristics form a harmonious whole with the warm bourbon character, while the noble hops bring refinement to this rich composition. With an impressive Untappd rating of 4.45 from over 6500 reviews, Brew 6000 proves its quality. This beer reaches perfection now, but true enthusiasts can certainly keep it for a few more years for further development. Barleywine is life!
