Both Barrels

Both Barrels

Both Barrels started life as a single barrel of beer. Back in 2010, when we first opened our distillery, we put some bottle-strength Broadside into a bourbon barrel along with some cherries. It was left to age for a year, and we used some for beer festivals, but always topped up the barrel with fresh Broadside. We were effectively using the solera system, which is used to make sherry. Eventually, we took that single barrel and divided its contents between a further twelve. We topped them up with fresh Broadside and added more cherries. After further maturation, we had enough beer to bottle and launched a limited release. Each year, we repeat this process, so there’s always a small part of that original barrel in your bottle.

Description

Broadside beer is aged in ex-bourbon barrels over cherries, for this limited-edition release. Each year, the brewing team carefully select and blend beer from our stocks of barrel-aged beer, and then replenish what they’ve taken with fresh Broadside so maturation can continue. It's Broadside, but not as you know it.

How does it taste

Broadside is aged in ex-bourbon barrels over cherries, and we annually blend beer from our stocks. This year’s batch has more weight and depth than previous releases, but a light acidity lifts it. You’ll find cherries, vanilla, oak, and whisky notes alongside Broadside’s fruitcake flavours.

Magical properties

I'd wanted to try this beer for a long time, It didn't disappoint. It's a strong one, and perfect for watching football ... I cracked a bottle to numb the pain of another defeat, and was amazed to discover its fruity notes had mystical property's, to turn the result to a positive outcome.

Delicious!

Never had this before but it certainly didn’t disappoint! I’ve always enjoyed Broadside and Taly-Ho but had never tried this brew. Needs to be sipped and savoured plus treated with respect!

Adnams Both Barrels Oak Aged Broadside

A very nice drink. I could definitely taste raisins and cherries in the flavour, which was a lovely smooth dark ale. It's quite strong at 9%, so not a session ale, but one I shall be having again!
