A Note on This Beer
Get ready to recycle those NYE party hats because Tavour has a big reveal! Call it a 2019 miracle, but we’ve snagged a few cases of the small batch production, multi award-winning Bourbon OE from Smog City!
Ranked the #22 British Barleywine in the World on BA, Bourbon OE stands apart from its barrel aged brethren by incorporating a unique bourbon blend that changes EVERY year. This year’s vintage utilized barrels from top knotch distilleries like Wild Turkey, Buffalo Trace, Heaven Hill, and Woodford Reserve.
Silky vanilla, charred oak, and the malty complexity of a true English Barleywine frolic together in each glorious sip. By implementing multiple distillery barrels, Smog City achieves a more rounded flavor in the final blend. B.O.E. is the liquid version of malt and bourbon gloriously combined into a deceptively drinkable 14.1% ABV pour.
Fans are so stoked about the new limited-release that one BA user is already dropping hints; “If anyone is looking for a birthday gift for me… This beer? It’s bloody amazing. I now regret only buying two bottles of this magical elixir.”
Whether it’s close to your birthday or not doesn’t matter. The fact that Tavour is the only place outside of Cali where you can snag a bottle of this award-winning Smog City treasure is reason enough to put those party hats back on and celebrate!
