MIX 6 OR MORE GET 20% OFF' BACCHUS BREWING ISLAY RESERVE 2024/5 PEATED BARLEYWINE 18.3% ABV

For this Smoked Barleywine we’ve taken a grist of 100% Heavy Peated Distilling Malt, sourced from Scotland, & used a reiterated mash process with a 2.5 hour boil, to produce a beer of incredible depth & length of flavour. Maturation in Octomore whisky barrels has rounded the beer beautifully, adding complexity & finesse.This is a combined year release, due to Scottish Islay peated malt facing a world wide shortage that cut off our regular supply of Bairds malt, causing us to miss our 2024 release date. Fortunately we've since sourced supply from one of the UKs finest maltsters Thomas Fawcett & we're delighted to showcase the results.
