Goose Island Bourbon County Stout – Reserve Brand – 2 Year Barleywine – 2022

TOFFEE, TOBACCO, VANILLA & DRIED FRUIT

For this reserve, we worked with our friends over at Old Fitzgerald to obtain three exceptional sets of barrels of varying ages from the distillery’s Old Fitzgerald’s Bottled-In-Bond Decanter Series. This reserve afforded us a remarkable opportunity to highlight the subtle nuances found only in 14-year, 16-year and 17-year-old bourbon barrels. Bringing back our classic English-style Barleywine for the first time since 2018, we knew this was going to be something special. Our Two-Year Barleywine Reserve evokes the rich intricacies from that of Old Fitzgerald’s Bottled-In-Bond series for a velvety taste of rich malt, entwined with notes of toffee, cherry, fig, and almond.
