Bourbon Barrel Aged Colossus

Barleywine - English

This is a true Colossus of a beer. An English-style Barley Wine brewed with the finest English malts and hops, and double mashed to maximize flavor and texture. Aged for 13 months in Heaven Hill Bourbon Barrels. The barrel aging gives complex notes of vanilla, coconut and charred oak, which layers on top of the beer’s flavor profile of dark fruit, tobacco and chocolate. A beer truly worthy of its name!

Helt igennem godkendt bw. En anelse for meget toffee og for lidt sherry hvis jeg skal være suuuuper pernitten, men min rating siger jeg er meget glad. Klart bedste fra bad seed jeg har prøvet 🙏 chefen var meget enig

Smuk 14,5% fadlagret barleywine, som har det meste. Den er sødfed, kompleks og boozy. Nødder, mørke frugter, karamel, chokolade osv. Muligvis min favorit Bad Seed... Skønt at have sådan et bryghus i DK

Rigtig lækker øl - fint med bourbon som er tydelig og god, tilpas sødme uden det bliver for meget. Let drikkelig trods de 14,5%. Jeg er glad!!!

Appropriate name for this beer. 13 months in Heaven Hills barrels makes sure that the alcohol is noticeable! Fantastic Barley Wine.

Meget tydelig duft af fadlagring, smag af fad, meget tydelig smag af bourbon, og det mest det man smager.

Oh boy was this a treat for my mouth and belly! If you follow my journey on here you know i love me some bourbon barrels. And this really delivered! Really not too boozy even with a 14,5%.

LCI.Hair chest growing experience. Alas, there were no real layers of coconut, vanilla, charred oak but rather one, very pervasive flavor: bourbon. Alcohol, man! Lots of it. Watered down, charred bourbon. Felt more like an impy stout than a barleywine too

Bad Seed Beer Fest! Absolute fave of the festival 🤓👌 As many has said before me, much in the vein of Fremont BW’s.. Lightly burned toffee, figs, muscovado & nice depth from the barrel & chocolate malts 🤤

Ganske fornuftig. Generelt synes jeg dog engelsk barleywine matches bedre med sherry eller portvinsfade, da de ikke har samme humlebitterhed til at stå imod bourbonfadet med.

Dejligt vådt Bourbon fad, mørke, tørrede frugter, læder i næsen, måske lidt Rom/rosin. Boozy, krydret og varmende. Jeg elsker den her øl. 4.4 i dag.

En kæmpe stor øl afslutter en god dag. Engelsk Barleywine dog en ikke hvinede sød og med let bitterhed 13 måneder på heaven Hill bourbon fade. 14.5% giver en let summen i munden. Vanilje, kokos, chokolade, træ, tørrede mørke stenfrugter , tobak,

Stærkt! Kæmpe karamel og tørrede frugter i starten. Så rammer sprutten dig lige i fjæset. Til sidst kommer 100% mørk og bitter chokolade med et strejf af tobak. Kompleks og imponerende af et dansk bryghus at være👏🏽👏🏽
