On the Classic wheel, from Tree House’s own descriptions of this beer.
It's not every day we release a double-barrel barleywine. In fact, it's basically never. Tree of Reckoning. Tree of Reckoning carries intense notes of bourbon-aged maple syrup, melted vanilla dark chocolate, Madeira-soaked plums, and German marzipan. These sweet notes are tempered by rich bourbon character throughout, along with accents of tannic American oak. While it’s a sipper crafted for the discerning Barleywine aficionado and bourbon enthusiast, we would be lying if we didn’t admit we’ve considered pouring this rich Ale over ice cream or soaking a tray of ladyfingers as a base for tiramisu. Aged for 27 months in Buffalo Trace barrels before being re-racked into select Weller barrels, it is one of our most bourbon-forward releases in Tree House history. Its appearance in the glass results from the transformative qualities of the double-barreling process. Pouring an almost stout-like color, its former ruby hue reveals itself when held to the light, obscured in the glass from the double exposure to char during its lengthy rest. Like all our barreled releases, Tree of Reckoning is the product of dutiful attention, foresight, and patience. It is a special beer, to be sure. We hope you enjoy it with those you love.
