An Imperial Brown Ale aged in ex Madeira wine and bourbon barrels. Taste: Sweet wine soaked sultanas and chestnuts come through evoking warm winter nights then are joined by perfectly burnt toast, hints of exotic liquorice, and even a light mint character. Roasty, nutty malt characters lead with a supporting cast of dark sugars, sweet lactose, and smooth crystal malts and rich tannins come through from the wine with just a touch of alcohol. Bourbon brings warmth of the new world, whilst the old world is well represented by the ex wine in this intercontinental contemporary brown ale. Appearance: Deep mahogany tinted brown with a deep chocolate tinted head. Nose: Oak, sweet dark sugar, cinnamon, allspice, and raisins. Malts: Pale malt, Munich malt, Rye malt, T50 malt, Cara pale, Cara 150, Brown malt, Golden naked oats, Red malt, Demerara sugar, Lactose Hops: Columbus, Centennial, Chinook
