About this beer

Fremont Brewing’s “Bourbon Barrel Aged Barleywine” is a strong English-style Barleywine aged in bourbon barrels for 16+ months, boasting an ABV of 14.7%. Brewed in celebration of Fremont’s 1000th brew, this limited release beer is crafted with Maris Otter & Carafa Special Two malts, and Yakima Valley hops—specifically Chinook and East Kent Goldings. The resulting flavor profile is complex and subtle, imbued with flavors of bourbon, dried fruit, and a malty sweetness. The label artwork depicts a vibrantly colored kingfisher perched above flowing water, set against a backdrop of a golden sunrise and the text “April 24th, 2026.”

The brewery’s statement on the label emphasizes a spirit of community and perseverance, referencing the challenges overcome to bring this particular brew to life. It is described as a gift for now and a promise for the future. In addition to standard warnings about responsible alcohol consumption, the label notes the beer’s distribution is limited to certain states.
