Dankwood (2018)

Red Ale - Imperial / Double

What do you get when a big, bold imperial red IPA meets an oak bourbon barrel? A palate stunner that'll send your senses spinning or, as we like to call it, Dankwood. Rich caramel notes emerge from the depths of the IPA, highlighting strong malt character while the bourbon barrel-aging develops the complexity. A dank, sticky and slightly sweet sipper, Dankwood is the perfect alchemy of wood and hops. You may remember this beer as barrel-aged reDANKulous, which was featured heavily in our taproom (and many of our bellies). 12.2% ABV. 65 IBUs. Dankwood is the third release of 2018 in the Barrel-Aged Series.

That's one murky ass beer, and still left a solid layer of stuff on the bottom. Still pretty darn good too.

Thought it will turn to barlywine but is remains a (triple) ipa. Woody but not much bourbon. Definitely not an clasic ipa. Time removed hops aroma, leaving caramel and toffee , bitter but not to much. Alittle boozy at the aftertaste but ok for 12.2 abv.

One of the best red IPA’s I’ve ever had. There’s perhaps one that i liked better, but only marginally, and the high abv, barrel aged aspect of this beer makes it pretty unique to me

En barrel aged imperial red indian pale ale, tak. Eller en dobbelt indianerbajer fra tønden, som man siger. Den er boozy, malty, karamely og ikke helt tossety…

#mondaybadboy. Phew, da knallt die Kellerpeitsche, sanft und knallhart zugleich. Über die Zeit hat sich das kleine Scheißerchen zu einem ausgewachsenen Red Ale Barleywine'ish Eichenkaramellboogiewhoogie mit würziger Bourbonnote und Vanillehaube. Trocken.

Smells like sweet caramel and rye whiskey staves. Pleasant. Brew is a murky brown color that almost looks like muddy water w/ sediment. Can taste the red…malts& hops, but not much IPA left after aging. But there is hops under the barrel. Mellow aged.

Bourbon and wood. Dark brownish red color. Very complex. Overall a very enjoyable beer.

We just cracked one open after aging. I think I liked it a bit better before. It’s almost too smooth now.
