Blue Mountain Barrel House
Arrington, Nelson County, Virginia, USA
Ale aged in bourbon barrels
1pt 9.4oz bottle
$9.99
6.6% abv
24 IBUs
On the cork: best by June 2014
Appearance: copper body; little cloudy; off-white two finger plus head; nice layers of lacing
Aroma: light bready, soft clove, and nothing else
Flavors: soft rye bread, spice, clove like on the back and
aftertaste, I keep on sipping and expecting more and nothing, oh how I wanted
the oak barrel to come through, uninspiring,
Mouthfeel: fine fizzy feel from the carbonation, light
spice, empty on flavor for a barrel aged ale, short aftertaste
To the Point: plain old uninspiring, it was drinkable, I finished
the whole bottle and the flavor nor the mouthfeel ever changed. I won’t buy again.
Just got to the last 5 ounces or so in the bottle and I
swirled the bottle to get some of the sediment off the bottom of the
bottle. It came out in clumps, big white
pasty chunks, don’t do this for this beer. Looked like cheap home brewer guys yeast.
Appearance is creamy caramel and the flavor does not improve.
