Description: BARREL AGED BARLEYWINE Since the beginning of time, people have slightly misinterpreted and reinterpreted each others words... and beers. The study of words’ original intentions has always been a thing - see Yaska, Sanskrit Grammarian circa 7th Century BCE. Same with beer. Which leads us to the question: what exactly is a barleywine? Etymology is a blend of two very different but equally delicious variations of barleywine. One a nuanced, ultra toasty American Barleywine (Etym 2024*) and the other a dark, rich, 20 month barrel aged English-style Barleywine (Ology 2024*). After months of study and reflection, we blended the two to create this bold and balanced beer. Etymology 2024 is a select blend of American & English Barleywines: 60% English Barleywine aged in Westward Whiskey Barrels for 20 Months 30% American Barleywine aged in Westward Whiskey Barrels for 12 months 10% ‘Red’ Barleywine aged in Russell Rye Barrels for 12 Months
