Ale, British style

Bought at: O´Brien´s, San Diego, California
Brewed by: Alpine Beer Company, Alpine, California
Rated at: Per´s Around the World Tour, Nov ´05-Feb ´06
Substyle: Barley wine aged in bourbon barrels
Bottled

Per´s comments: Hazy reddish brown. Very roasty with strong notes of madeira. Sweet with lots of malt and distinctive sharp bourbon flavour. The woodiness goes a bit overboard, and the mouthfeel is somewhat raw. Lingering salty finish. A bit rude on first sip, but also very complex and interesting.
