BA Imperial Dark Ale
A special release from our barrel ageing programme in celebration of our 30th Anniversary!
This one began life as a strong dark ale with a robust malt backbone, laying perfect foundations for the smooth warmth of the fresh Madeira cask.
Decadently aromatic with a dried fruit sweetness and flavours of brown sugar, fortified by rich barrel character.
Our Barrel Project is the domain of our Brewer Jim Rangeley, who alongside our Funk Dungeon Project is our Conductor in Chief of all things oaky and funky. This wing of Abbeydale’s brewing came about in 2018 and since then has produced a steady stream of mixed fermented and barrel aged (or, often both) beers. With a focus on unusual, or even unique ingredients and a passion for Brettanomyces, Belgian inspired brewing and sometimes mildly ludicrous experimentation, this innovative and profoundly creative side of Abbeydale is where we really get wild – in more ways than one! Brett, Farmhouse, sour, funk, and layers of flavours imparted in wood are all wrangled by Jim to bring about very special, very small batch, fascinating beers.
