Tin Man Barleywine

A rich, malty, nuclear flavor bomb, our Barleywine is a well-balanced interpretation of the American Barleywine style. A deep ruby color and sticky, cream colored head make for an enticing visual. Smells of raisin and toffee, with hints of caramel, dominate the nose, while the flavor tends to be a delectable blend of strong raisin and robust maltiness. This focus on sweetness is beautifully balanced by the generous use of Galena hops, creating an earthy bitterness across the palate to balance the cloying qualities found in such a big beer. The alcohol warmth is present, yet not overpowering, which makes this beer an excellent choice for pairing with rich dishes like our Beef Manhattan or Cheesecake Du Jour.
