Dream by Day is an English barleywine, we brewed this beer with a combination of Maris Otter and English crystal malts, boiled for hours, fermented and then aged for over a year in A. Smith Bowman bourbon barrels. Rich amber brown, with a chill haze that disappears as it warms up, with off-white lacing with enticing aromas of oak, bourbon, treacle, toffee, and rich dark fruit. The flavor is equally layered as the oaky and vanilla-esque bourbon combines beautifully with nutty, caramel, sweet, toasty malt. Low carbonation helps keep the texture of the beer luscious and velvety, with a smooth, subtle warmth without any alcohol burn. While ready to enjoy now, if there is a beer to cellar and age, it's this one. Careful, though, as you may find yourself lost in thought as you Dream by Day. “Those who Dream By Day are cognizant of many things.” Edgar Allan Poe
