About this beer

Off Color Brewing presents Barrel Aged Class War, a robust ale brewed in the Gotlandsdricka style and aged in barrels. This offering boasts an elevated alcohol content of 9.5% ABV. The beer is uniquely crafted with the inclusion of both honey and juniper berries, contributing to a complex flavor profile that hints at sweetness balanced by the botanical character of the juniper. The label features a whimsical, hand-drawn illustration of a frog seemingly leaping off the “Off Color Brewing” script logo, set against a largely white background marked with boxed information referencing gallon sizes.

Brewed in Chicago, Illinois, this barrel aging process undoubtedly imparts additional layers of oak and subtle notes, amplifying the Gotlandsdricka characteristics. The style itself is rooted in a traditional Swedish farmhouse ale tradition, and this iteration adds Off Color’s distinctive twist through careful ingredient selection and maturation. A prominent government warning regarding the dangers of alcohol consumption occupies a large portion of the label’s lower half.
