Much like the lacerative muther of a beer that is Double Bastard Ale, rye whiskey is not for everyone. Not remotely. Most are not emotionally or otherwise equipped to appreciate its unbridled intensity. So to sequester Double Bastard Ale in rye whiskey barrels is to conceive an experience that no doubt will be treasured by only a select few. It takes a special breed of exceptional depth to thrive under such demanding conditions and emerge with such stunning vibrancy. Something this sublime should never be squandered, however. Those plagued by even a smidge of self-doubt should look elsewhere. This rare treasure is strictly for those possessing the capacity to appreciate what many just like me. 500 ml release. Templeton Rye Whiskey Barrel Aged.

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 7
Rated in May 2016. 500ml corked and caged bottle pours with a murky amber colored body that supports a tan head of foam. The aroma offers up pine hop nuanced vanilla and whiskey notes with a mild fruity ester sensation in the background. As it warms the whiskey odor starts to dominate. The taste delivers a big malt sweetened hit of whiskey and vanilla oak notes followed quickly by resiny pine hop bitterness. Into the finish a pleasing earthy tea note is noticed in spite of the roaring whiskey and pine hops. This attains some balance although a bit of a softer barrel character would help.

Aroma: 10 | Appearance: 9 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 9
Pours translucent sepia with a fairly thick and fine light tan head. Aroma presents caramel, toasted malt, woody, whisky and nutty tones. Flavor features bold roast malt, caramel, whisky, wood, and even fresh hop notes for a distinctive and very satisfying brew. Mouthfeel has good body, if not much fizz.
