Sensational oak-barrel aged barleywine allows medicinal bourbon-cognac warmth to usurp syrupy caramel malting, brown chocolate creaming, chewy toffee sweetness and bourbon vanilla sway. Toasted pecan-almond nuttiness underlines orange-bruised cherry brandy soothe. Serpentine grapefruit rind bittering, musty date-fig-prune souring and juicy nectarine-melon conflux add to overall complexity.

(TWO BROTHERS) BARE TREE WEISS VINTAGE 2000
Luxurious barleywine entry given delicate floral hop bittering to form initial thrust of fabulous turbidly copper-hued ultra ‘weiss.’ Creamy vanilla-butterscotch splurge gets clove-coriander accent and distant raisin-fig-date splotch mid-palate. At illustrious finish, pear, nectar, and banana offer benevolent fructose rush. Well done!
