Urban Roots Brewing All Possible Futures
What the brewers say
“A barleywine aged for two years in Stagg Jr. bourbon barrels.”
What our panel thought
“Big aromas of milk chocolate, tobacco, wood, bourbon. Flavor is a nice balance of red apple, barrel tannins, and milk chocolate. Medium spicy alcohol and rich dark-fruit and malt character.”
What our editors thought
“Tightly refined aroma with glimpses of stone fruit, cellar oak, marzipan, créme brûlée crust, and chocolate liqueur. Lighter in the sip than the aroma suggests, with a burnt bread crust bitterness, a full body with measured malt sweetness, and artfully integrated ethanol.”
