Description
As the saying goes, Barley Wine is life.
So we're back to breathe new vitality into your souls with a showcase of three different representations of the style, featuring two vintages of the peerless Harvest Ale from Manchester's very own JW Lees.
It's the second edition of an event we first hosted around a year ago and we'll welcome back JW Lees' incredible former head brewer Paul Wood for the occasion. Few people know more about brewing Barley Wine than Paul, having done so at JW Lees for no fewer than 47 years!
We'll also be joined on the live stream by his successor and current JW Lees master brewer Tom Evans to taste the first batch of Harvest Ale that fell under his stewardship (2020).
The two Harvest Ales are joined in the event pack by our own Modern Barleywine, which combines a rich malt base with a bright modern hop presence. You won't get many chances to taste three beers like these side-by-side!
The event will take place on Wednesday May 12th, starting at 7.30pm.
This pack includes the following 5 beers!
1 x 275ml bottle of JW Lees - Harvest Ale 2020 Vintage, Barley Wine 11.5% ABV
1 x 275ml bottle of JW Lees - Harvest Ale 2016 Vintage, Barley Wine 11.5% ABV
