Thrice Baked - Apple Pie is the direct descendant to one of our all-time favorite beers, Double Baked. In order to make Thrice Baked, first we put our robust barleywine, Tree of Life, into second-use apple brandy barrels. After aging for over a year, we blended this with a thread of our Blonde Barleywine, which has been aging for over two years in select bourbon barrels, before finally adding whole vanilla beans and cinnamon into the mix. The result is a complex confectionary treat full of spiced apple character, warming cinnamon, and comforting vanilla, interwoven with traditional barrel-aged barleywine flavors of brown sugar, fruit leather, and subtle tobacco. This decadent libation is a true sipper
