Notes:
Why Rye? This assertively flavorful grain is more often associated with whiskey than with ales. Even in that arena, it has largely been eclipsed by corn and barley, the sources of bourbon and scotch. But when we procured some seasoned barrels from our friends at Templeton Rye, we asked ourselves, “Why not?” Why not brew a rich, tawny rye ale, then mellow it in the warmth of charred oak rye whiskey casks? Two kinds of malted rye provide spicy sweetness, giving way to notes of caramelized wood and the citrusy tang of Perle, Magnum, and Saphir hops before easing into a dry, lingering finish.

thanks merc for cracking out this vintage 2012 brew
The beer pours a dull, hazy orange/red amber with a thin halo of tan head, loose lacing, and plentiful sediment. The nose is buttery whiskey barrel aged caramel sweetness, slightly boozy, with a touch of rye. The taste is definitely whiskey barrel forward with a generous amount of rye spice in the finish. It's medium bodied, barleywine-esque, slightly spice, heavily barrel aged and boozy (but not as much as the BBQ). Wow, what a good beer that presents huge barrel aged sweetness along with excellent rye spice. It's more of an evening sipper at 11% and with huge rye spice, but very tasty and impressive. I'd certainly try this beer again.

2012 Bomber poured into snifter glass.
A: Reddish/Mild Orangish Hue, Passes Some Light, Off White Head Ring, Some Lacing
S: Rye Bourbon Barrel Sweetness, Honey, Rye
T: Rye Bourbon, Honey, Rye, Mild Sweet Bread
M: Decent Carbonation, Medium Bodied, Mildly Sweet, Mildly Boozy
Overall, you really get the rye barrel taste and the rye grains seperately but they mesh well together too. Solid.
