From the label“Mash & Vanilla is an ode to a classic from The Bruery. A bourbon barrel-aged barleywine-style base provides a well-matured, oaky and sweet foundation, while the addition of vanilla beans brings prominent and savory vanilla sensation to the forefront of your palate with every sip. Enjoy fresh for the most full-bodied vanilla character.”
