Barleywine-style Ale? These brews are usually only winelike in alcoholic content, they are all beer. In fact they are biggest baddest brews in thePale Ale family. Malt flavors, hop bitterness and aroma, yeasty esters,everything has been turned up to ‘11’. Our Numb Comfort is the continuationof the American interpretation of the style originally of British origin. Wefill the mash tun to the top with four of our favorite malts, then dose it with enough of our favorite resinous, piney and fruity hops to balance. English Ale yeast takes it from there. But we’re not done yet! We then age aportion of this flavorful ale in oak whiskey barrels to drive the complexity past the horizon.
