Newgrass Brewing Co. The Void Absolved
English Barleywine 13.4 º
The Void Absolved is an opulent English Barleywine defined by its extended maturation in bourbon barrels. The sensory profile is dominated by the complex interplay of woody oak and the esters of a fruity English ale yeast, evoking decadent notes of bananas foster and rich dark fruit. Beneath the spirit-forward character lies a foundation of deep, bready malt with evocative nuances of navy flake pipe tobacco, fresh leather, and old book. Its thick, viscous body carries a significant alcohol warmth, balanced by a lingering sweetness and a multi-layered finish that reflects the depth of its four-year blended components.
Appearance. Deep copper to dark brown with brilliant ruby highlights; pours with a low, tan-colored head that shows minimal retention and leaves oily legs on the glass, indicative of its high viscosity.
Aroma. High intensity, featuring rich caramel and toffee malt notes layered with pronounced dark fruit esters like raisin and fig. Distinctive English ale yeast produces aromas of bananas foster, complemented by secondary notes of fresh leather, pipe tobacco, and vanillin from the bourbon barrel.
Taste. Initial impression is a massive, multi-layered malt sweetness of caramel and toasted bread. A complex fruit character follows, showcasing banana and dark cherry. Hop bitterness is low to moderate, providing just enough structure against the residual sugars. The finish is lingering and sweet, with prominent woody bourbon, oak tannin, and a faint vinous oxidation reminiscent of old books.
Mouthfeel. Full-bodied and exceptionally chewy with a sticky, velvety texture. Carbonation is low, and a significant, smooth alcohol warmth is present without being harsh or fusel.
