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.

God Imperial Red Ale med fruktiga inslag. Genomträngande alkoholsmak drar ner betyget.

Aged 5 years (and a day!). Kinda sorta blah-ish, but got better as it warmed. Mostly an overly bitter BA barleywine. Looking at my original rating, i wasn't stoked over this back then either.

Kuivunut on vuosien myötä, runko myös ohentunut. Humala tulee yllättävän terhakkaasti esiin edelleen ja tynnyröinti maistuu myös, onhan tämä laatuolut edelleen..

Definitely not reminiscent of an IPA with 2.5 years on it. Kind of one noted barrel & sweetness

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.

Wasn’t entirely sure what I was getting into, but is was still a good ride. I’d have another one if given the chance. The barrel helped keep the red IPA taste around a bit.
