About this release

An absolute showstopper from Revolution's Twenty Ten Variant Collection, the celebrated brewery from Chicago. This extra sweet Straight Jacket Barleywine matured in Cruzan Rum barrels that were used only once before, for rum, meaning no less than three times as much oak imprints its character on the beer. Complemented by fire-roasted American oak, a luxurious interplay of caramel, coconut and vanilla unfolds, with a rich, malty base and a warm, sweet finish. This complex barleywine offers an impressive combination of rum-barrel character and depth through intensive oak contact. The sweet profile is elegantly balanced by the robust malt backbone, resulting in a full, round taste experience. Ideal for lovers of barrel-aged beers seeking richness and complexity in a glass. Revolution Brewing from Chicago has created a masterpiece with this beer that perfectly aligns with their reputation for ambitious, fully matured creations. The 440ml bottle is ideal for sharing this special experience, or for carefully storing in a beer enthusiast's collection. Impressive in every way, a worthy example for those who truly appreciate barrel-aged characters.
