Description: A British-Style Old Ale, winter strong ale aged in Twenty Boats Amber Rum. Weighing in at around 8% ABV and made with over 2,000 pounds of malted barley this beer is packed with malty flavor. This is an ongoing summer Cape Cod Beer tradition, where our Brewmaster Todd preserves the last drops of winter ale and barrel aged to be enjoyed in the heat of summer. Each year the barrel varies, resulting in subtle changes to the beer’s flavor profile each summer. This year's batch was aged in a barrel from Truro Vineyards + South Hollow Spirits that was used to age their Twenty Boat Amber Rum for 2.5 years. Twenty Boats Amber Rum has a complexity that is the result of a blended aging process, incorporating both Chardonnay and whiskey barrels for a spirit full with the aromas and flavors of vanilla, strong caramel nuttiness, and rich minerality. Twice distilled in small batches, Amber Rum is made from molasses and sugarcane juice, with a lingering finish that brings sweet notes of butterscotch, balanced with earthy tobacco.
