3 Ravens Ale Noir

Style
Barrel-Aged Smoke Beer
ABV
5.4%

It's been seen this year in "Double" form and now the Thornbury's brewery's barrel-aged version of their smoky Dark Ale is back in normal "Ale Noir" fashion. The story behind it sees the brewers pop some of the Dark into a barrel once used for pinot noir and let the two go to work for a few months. The result aroma-wise this time around is low on wine characteristics, but high on the oak and smoke, both of which make an appearance once imbibed amid swirls of dark malts that range from the sweet to the roasty. Carbonation's kept pretty low, contributing to a body that's light to medium, with the brewers recommending it's quaffed at 10C.
