I see a trend forming here. Southern Tier will be releasing an oak aged edition of their Backburner Barleywine, and now the extremely popular Pumking. A brewery rep just informed me a limited release of the beer arrives the first of December.

More on this release:

Southern Tier achieves their oak-aged quality by hanging pieces of oak directly into the fermentation tank and letting it ferment for 24-28 days. This time around, the brewery made 200 barrels which they will be distributing on draught only.

Availability: Draft only.

Arrival: Limited release, 12/1/11

8.6% ABV
