WV Tequila Bees (Barrel Reserve)

WV Tequila Bees is a Belgian Strong Golden Ale aged for 16 months in tequila barrels, imparting a delicate warmth and subtle agave notes. The beer showcases a rich golden color and a complex aroma featuring honeyed sweetness intertwined with hints of oak and a faint tequila character. On the palate, flavors of wild West Virginia honey meld with the dry, spicy yeast profile typical of the style, complemented by a smooth, slightly boozy finish. With an ABV of 10.5%, the mouthfeel is full-bodied yet balanced, highlighting the interplay between the barrel aging and traditional Belgian fermentation.
