Opal Bourbon Barrel-aged Old Ale. Opal E. Coker (1926-2010) was a craftswoman, matriarch, and social worker. She was the wife of Leon Jay Coker. In her honor, we brewed this old ale and aged it in bourbon barrels before dry-hopping with Opal hops.

    750mL bottle pours with a dark body that supports a dark tan head of foam. The aroma offers up malts blended with jammy grape must and then lighter notes of booze, dates and bourbon. The taste delivers sweet malts, brown sugar dusted prunes and then a bit of molasses, dates and ripe cherries. Toward the finish modest smooth sweet bourbon comes to the surface to add a little more depth to counter the Old Ale sweetness. A bit of earthy tobacco would pull this right on track.
