Kereru 2018 Paloma Whisky Barrel-Aged Barley Wine

Style: Barley Wine (BA)

ABV: 14.3%

500ml Bottle

Paloma New Zealand Barrel-Aged Barleywine is a rich, smooth, nutty, strong ale that has been aged for ten months in French oak wine barrels that previously held New Zealand Whisky Co's Double-Wood Whisky for many years. Like all our beers, it is made with New Zealand-grown malt and hops. 14.3% ABV.

Packaged 2017. Best before 2025.

There was a very limited number of New Zealand Whiskey Co. barrels and Kereru can soak the whiskey out of a barrel into a beer only once. (After that first use, the barrel may offer oak flavour, but the whiskey flavour is gone.) We produced a scant 1500 bottles of this very rare beer for this initial release, but bit more will be coming in 2018.
