This year’s Three Ryes Men is a 12.2% barleywine brewed with three kinds of rye, aged in a blend of bourbon barrels. It is a rich, spicy, and decadent beer with notes of cherry, chocolate and caramel perfect for the winter season. The 2017 vintage won Gold in the barleywine category at the North American Brewing Awards earlier this year.
Chocolate Box: Hazelnut Praline is the first in a series of barrel-aged beers designed around the theme of a British Cadbury Chocolate Box. This truffle of a beer was aged on hazelnuts, cocoa nibs, and whole vanilla beans after aging in bourbon barrels for almost a year. This is a 14% beer bursting with rich milk chocolate and hazelnut, with a silky, rich body. It is a treat.
