Phase Three Brewing Arabesque
What the brewers say
“Barrel-aged dark English-style barleywine aged in Heaven Hill bourbon casks.”
What our panel thought
“Rich dark chocolate, hazelnut, caramel, and coffee aroma. Flavor is equally bold as dark dried cherry and fig mingle with chocolate, caramel, roast, and leather.”
What our editors thought
“Leathery restraint in the nose, finely tanned into a gorgeous sheen. Brown sugar drives the sip, with tighter leather notes and sweeter bourbon, but the midrange focus sacrifices some bass.”
