Crosby's Kitchen & CocktailAmerican Wild

Originally a barley wine that was manipulated into an American Wild (using other yeast or bacteria in the beer). This brew was made back in December of 2014, had a lot of potential but still too young. The George Dickle barrel opened up so it was, naturally, a perfect contender to age. Along the aging process we decided to add a little brettanomyces to ‘funk’ it up. The nose has tropical fruit, with noticeable alcohol, along with nice sweet dark fruits and cherries. The flavor is a little spicy from the high alcohol along with a nice cherry note. In the background is a nice brown sugar flavor from the aging. The barrel is noticeable but not over the top. Prost!
