Commercial Description:
En krydsning mellem barley wine og stærk belgisk ale. Denne øl har sit forbillede i en barleywine kaldet Celebration Vintage. Tårnhøjt Skum er brygget på Søgaards Bryghus sammen med bestyrelsen i Danske Ølentusiasters lokalafdeling Aalborg. Aalborg-tårnet, som er et af byens vartegn, er sammen med Danske Ølentusiasters hilsen "HØJT SKUM" grundlag for øllets navn. Denne øl har bedst af at blive gemt i kælderen, indtil den rigtige lejlighed indtræffer. For eksempel fejring af 10-års dagen for stiftelsen af foreningen Danske Ølentusiaster på Øllets Dag den 6. september 2008. Malt: Pilsner, Cara 120, Munchener M15, Special B. Humle: Zeus, Chinook, East Kent Goldings, Cascade. Mørkt rørsukker. Gær: T-58. Gæret i åbne gæringskar og lageret på Whiskyfad.

Bottled. Ambery brown colour with no head. Aroma is caramel, wood and some mild oaky notes as well as vanilla and some slight alcohol. Flavour is caramel, oak, sweet malts, some fruits, fudge and vanilla. All in a nice balance. Alcohol gives a nice warming touch.

++Bottled at European Beer Festival, Copenhagen.++ Muddy brown, no head. Aroma of vanill aand oak. The same vast caramelly malt character as the non barrel aged version, but the oak and vanilla lifts it a bit and gives it more life. Warming salty finish.
