CRIMSON KING

On the palate, this beer is full-bodied, complex, and deeply layered. The rich, malty sweetness of the Barley Wine base—packed with flavors of brown sugar, dates, and candied fruits—is expertly balanced by the tart and juicy character of the cherries. This fruitiness keeps the heavy 12.8% ABV incredibly well-integrated and prevents it from becoming overly cloying. The mouthfeel is velvety, thick, and deeply warming. Finish: A lingering, sophisticated finish where the initial malty sweetness slowly gives way to a fruity, slightly dry, and beautifully warming aftertaste.
