Bottleworks XXVI is a rye whiskey barrel-aged barleywine that was aged in a single 7-year Russell Reserve rye whiskey barrel for 16 months. This barleywine was brewed in collaboration and reserved to celebrate Bottleworks’ 26th anniversary.
barleywine was brewed with a rich base of English pale, amber, crystal, oat, caramelized oat, and pale chocolate malts. Hopped with Harlequin and East Kent Goldings and fermented with a robust English ale yeast.
