For TWCP

For TWCP falls in line with our other "For" beers - a beer blended exclusively for a friend for their anniversary. When first brewed, this was the first time we had used almonds in a beer. The flavor of almonds is very hard to extract while using only natural ingredients (no extracts were used in this beer, only real, slivered almonds), so we experimented with "overdosing" the initial beer with almonds and Ghanan Cocoa Nibs and then allowed it to rest in the barrel to soften and develop. After aging, we assessed whether or not it would need to be back-blended; however, we loved the profile that had evolved and then finished the final beer on a heavy dose of Tahitian Vanilla Beans to pull it all together. This eight-malt beer rested in Blanton's Bourbon barrels for 20 months before blending and bottling and determining it was ready to share with you. Show Less
