Between the intersection of cool and crazy, we present to you Skeleton Crew, a ridiculously big Fig Newton Barley Wine.
Skeleton Crew was first introduced in March 2020, while the city was in lockdown and we had a bit of spare time and tank space to play with.
Coming in at a cheek warming 10.8%, Skeleton Crew is as complex as it is boozy. Caramel, molasses, dried fruit, biscuit, figs! And that is just the nose! As it warms up, the richness and *ahem* alcohol shines as well. It might not be the first thing that you reach for on the patio, but it could be the last!
This is a super limited run so keep your eyes peeled!
