Description

Although officially considered an Imperial IPA, a style that owes
its existence to the American west coast, the Burton Baton is
actually a mix of an Imperial IPA and an English Old Ale. Called
"threads," the two beers are then "threaded" together in to a
10,000 gallon oak tank where it ages. Around one pound of hops PER
BARREL are added to this brew to make it nice and hoppy hoppy. It
turns out that this beer is bold, flavorful, and really tells a
story as you drink it, as there are separate flavor profiles during
different stages of the drinking process! At 10% ABV, this is a
big, yummy beer, and another win from Dogfish Head - but really,
who's surprised?
