The 1-year barrel aged whiskey beer is a beer with deep, rich aromas of whisky, oak and vanilla that result from aging in the cask.
The flavor is often complex and multi-faceted, with a pleasing balance between the sweetness of the malt, the bitterness of the hops, and the warmth of the alcohol.
The beer is dark amber in color and has a soft, creamy texture with a pleasantly long finish. The notes are consistent with a robust and aromatic beer that will appeal to connoisseurs of whiskey and craft beers alike.

Tasting:
Bacon, smoke, salty, peaty, sherry, tart, sweet, almost overstimulated, fattening, little drinking flow, fine mousse.
Food Pairing:
Gamey proteins, such as venison or lamb, grass-fed beef, and roasted pork, along with root vegetables pair well with whiskeys of moderate to medium intensity.
Medium-bodied cheeses such as cheddar and aged gouda should work well. Denser desserts, such as pumpkin bread.
Ageing Potencial:
A whisky beer, however, usually becomes better if it is aged at least two years - but it depends on the personal taste - the longer you have it in the cellar the more intense the flavours will become.
Serving:
A large goblet that enhances the complexity of full bodied beers. Around 16°C is recommended.
