Description
Oaked Barley Wine all-grain beer kit – classic English barley wine with oak
Oaked Barley Wine is a classic barley wine in the traditional English style, with oak chips added during fermentation. English barley wine is a malt-driven beer with relatively little hop character and an alcohol strength like wine, hence the name. French medium toast oak chips add an oak character that complements the beer. You can soak the chips in rum or whisky before adding them.
