Corner Brewery Thanksgiving weekend “meeting”
Jim and Wendy Suchy drove 800 miles from South Carolina. A bunch of us drove much less than that to the Corner Brewery on Friday for a warm, friendly get-together.
Recipe
Bourbon barrel barleywine (BBBW)
In April of 2006, AABG members got together to fill our newly acquired bourbon barrel with barleywine. 11 5-gallon batches of the same recipe (see below) were brewed by members in order to fill the barrel. Since then, we have taken some out for sampling at AABG meetings, some members have withdrawn their 5 gallon share, and other members have added newly fermented beer (from the same recipe.) Every time we taste it, the beer is different. It has consistent oaky/vanilla aroma, some bourbon flavor, and a modicum of tartness. Sometimes it is sweeter, sometimes more sour, but always interesting.
