Notes
This recipe is for a Barrel Aged Barleywine, BABC club brew (2/3/07). 14 different batches all brewed the same day on 6 different systems. This brew was fermented in 5 different containers (14-20 gallons each). Then the beer was racked (3/14/07) into the secondary, a Firestone Walker 60 Gallon American Oak Heavy Toast Barrel given to us by Matt Brynildson from their Union System; were it currently is aging.
