Längst (Blend #3)
12.0% Other Traditional / Historical ale
Längst is our bourbon barrel-aged Adambier, a historic, strong, malty German ale that was brewed with 7 different German malts and fermented with a fruity yeast strain. This Adambier was aged for 18 months in bourbon barrels to showcase the barrel as the predominant characteristic lending to notes of dark, dried fruits, toffee, caramel, peat and leather before being bottled almost still.
This release was aged for 18 months in 6 year old Buffalo Trace Barrels. I have found the barrels from the Buffalo Trace distillery to be my preference for this beer and our Anabasis line. Their integration with our malty (not stout) beers provides the last ingredient to pull these beers together and be called Side Project.

Sitten jotain kauan haluamaani oluttyyliä ja olutta maistoon 🤩🍺.Side Project ei esittelyä kaipaa,mutta Adambier olut tyylinä aivan tuntematon ja todella harvinainen nykyään ilmeisestikkin🤔.
18kk Buffalo Trace tynnyreissä ei ainakaan yhtään myöskään vähennä mielenkiintoa tätä kohtaan🤪✌️.
Tuoksussa todella vahva tynnyrin läsnäolo.Vähän karamellisoitua mallasta,hiiltyneempää pintaa saaneen puisuuden ja tupakin kaverina👌.
Suutuntuma on helposti nautittavan kepeähkö.Antaen silti runsasta ja rikasta makumaailmaa,suoraviivaiseen tapaan.
Perkele kuinka hienosti tässä pääsee tuo Tynnyröinti loistavasti oikeuksiinsa🥰.
Nahkaista karamellisoitua mallasvyötä tarjotaan niin että pakarat helottavat ☺️🤌.Tässä varmaankin maltaista lähtöistä, jotenkin leipäisempää otantaa myös kumpuaa taustalta kepeästi esiin.
Aah v*ttu sentään jos muutkin Adambierit ovat tälläisiä ihanaisuuksia lupaan ostaa kaikki mitkä eteen sattuvat 😅(elikkäs ei varmastikkaan yhtään tarvitse ostaa🤣).
🎶 Motionless In White - Masterpiece 🎶
- Kruunaa tämän nautinnon 🍻🥃🎶🔥 -

GREY’S VIEW
Adambier Aged for 18 months in 6 year old Buffalo Trace Bourbon Barrels w/ 7 different German Malts.
Ok the first sip. It opens up in layers and quite quickly. First sip hits with Buffalo Trace Barrels; Bourbon, saunawood, hints of caramel and deeply warming sensation. Then arrives the malts. Ah! They’re introduced as crunchy, really agile, lively and even playfully; supporting the pervasive breadiness and dark being of this work admirably. Are there also some notes of dark berries?
Mouthfeel is light, fast and easy. Yeap. Even too easy. I mean, where are those 7 malts that was used in the making? I’d say, beautiful work.
OTHER NOTES:
Längst is named after The Wine And Cheese Place in St.Louis.
It’s so rare thing to have malty beer where the malts are this well presented. It’s crunchy bready, bit different, quite straight forwarded after all and really clean and agile in presentation.
And. The first Adambier styled beer to me.
POST SCRIPTUM:
Incredible work from Side Project once again. Their beers seems to be so precise and pure. Even a bit wild in a way. True Craft Beer Brewery.
