Was given this at work yesterday. Can anyone tell me anything about it?

Three of my favorite things here. Beer, Chiefs and cats.

Highly regarded barrel aged English style barleywine.

I haven't had that vintage but just from the style you can expect boozy, oak, dark fruits, toffee, vanilla, chocolate, etc. type flavors.

Nice sipper on a cool evening, or afternoon, or morning...

I moved this past week to Tempe and stopped at Fate's for a few beers as it's down the street from my new place.

This Hatch Chile Gatos Ale was incredible.

It's pretty good... subtle for my tastes, for obvious reasons. :D

Their Candy Bar Stout and King Sized are out as well... King Sized was aged in Buffalo Trace barrels.

Hopefully this will reach the FFF footprint

DEEP (adj) extending far down from the top or surface.

FLUX (n) describes something that constantly changes

A while back, we took our friends at 3 Floyds on a long strange trip down a deep, dark hallway past thousands of our bourbon, rum, tequila, and red wine barrels. We stopped to rest next to a collection of rye whiskey and Madeira wine casks, and after a few beers, we agreed that, yes, these were the chosen ones. A couple more beers and we heard them tell us they wanted to be filled with barleywine – and when barrels speak, we listen.

Deep Flux is a unique, pale barleywine that pours a rich auburn color with aromas of brown sugar, oak, and dark stone fruit. This malty brew is beautifully complimentary of its barrel aging, which spent 100% of its process in wood barrels and broke down into 60% in rye whiskey barrels and 40% in Madeira wine casks. The end result for Deep Flux is a big and boisterous barleywine with resplendent flavors of rye, Madeira, and oak lurking in the barrels.

We think you’ll agree that this beer is far from ordinary.

This looks like about $15 per 4 pack. :hmmm:

Which would be insanely inexpensive for a beer that’s been aged in premium barrels for an extended period of time.

It’s not unusual for a 4pk of IPA to go for $15-20 @ 4 weeks grain to can.

One of my all-time favorite beers - FW has an amazing BA program. I have back to 2015 in my cellar currently - great aging beer.

Agree.

Dogfish Head's 120 aged is $30 for a 4 pack! :eek:

Thought of you today while at Mikerphone picking up their BA vanilla stout collab with Other Half and grabbed a crowler of their Nutter Butter collab with Bottle Logic

What’s your favorite cheap beer that you actually like?

I’ll start. Miller High Life is as cheap as I’ll go and still enjoy it.
