Hello beer lovers and welcome to another edition of the
NorCal Beer Blog's brew review.
Tonight’s featured beer is Tahoe Mountain Brewing Company
Auld Bitch Bourbon Barrel Aged Barleywine. I picked this bottle up at Jane’s
Beer Store in Mountain View, CA (here). They have a fantastic
selection and I highly recommend visiting them if you find yourself anywhere
near the area.
Let’s get started!
Appearance: Pours
caramel colored with a large off-white head and great lacing.
Aroma: Sweet
caramel and bready malts, bourbon, dark fruit, vanilla, toffee and oak.
Taste: Flavor
follows the nose, sweet caramel and bready malts, bourbon, brown sugar, dark
fruit, vanilla, oak and toffee.
Overall: Delicious
and smooth, Tahoe Mountain Brewing Company Auld Bitch Bourbon Barrel Aged
Barleywine is one of the best bourbon barrel aged barleywines I’ve had. This 10.8% ABV offering is something I plan
to find more of. I wish I had purchased
more than one bottle. I’m looking forward to trying Tahoe Mountain Brewing
Company’s other offerings.
Cheers!
Mark Harvey
