A Note on This Beer
When Firestone Walker released their prized Sucaba 2018 Vintage, they said it “is built to last and can age for years to come.”
Here’s your chance to taste for yourself how two years of cellaring has mellowed out this English-style Barleywine’s complex, dark chocolate malt flavors and boozy, bourbon-oak aromas.
Or, let it slumber a while longer and wait for the deeper cherry notes and sweet vanilla undertones to reveal themselves further as the 12.5% ABV smooths out.
Just don’t wait too long before grabbing a bottle.
This is the beer that’s ranked #3 in its style on BeerAdvocate. That’s not in the nation — that’s in the entire world!
And, when Paste Magazine named Firestone Walker the #1 American Brewery of the 2010s last year, this Bourbon Barrel-Aged behemoth was listed as one of the reasons why.
So, while Sucaba’s savor-worthy complexity and velvety body will stand the test of time, our supply of it certainly won’t.
