Brewing a high‑gravity beer like barleywine is an exciting challenge—it demands more time, ingredients, and patience compared to lighter styles. If you’re brewing all‑grain, be aware that your yield will likely be reduced because of the heavier grain bill.

A homebrewed Barleywine. Titan’s Tribute.

(See our article: Titan’s Tribute Barleywine (Homebrew Recipe) )

1. Grain Bill & Specialty Malts

Start with a substantial base malt—lights such as 2‑row barley or Maris Otter—and add specialty malts (e.g., crystal, caramel) to boost flavor and color. You’ll need much more grain than for standard beers.

2. Extract Brewing Alternative

If you prefer extract brewing, supplement your base malt extract with specialty grains for complexity. This simplifies the process while still producing rich malt flavors.

3. Water & Mash

Use a balanced water profile. For American-style barleywine, consider blending reverse-osmosis and tap water. Adding chloride enhances malt smoothness, while some sulfate (100–200 ppm) can help dry out the finish. Aim for a mash temperature around 152–156 °F to retain fermentable sugars but still allow body.

4. Boil & Hops

A long, vigorous boil (90 minutes or more) intensifies caramelization and concentrates the wort. Hops are essential—not only to balance the massive malt bill but also to define whether your wine leans English (more restrained hops) or American (bold, citrusy hops).

5. Yeast & Fermentation

Choose a robust yeast strain capable of achieving high attenuation. Pitch enough yeast and consider a starter to ensure a healthy fermentation. With high gravity, a secondary fermentation is recommended to clear and mature the beer.

6. Conditioning & Aging

Patience is vital. Barleywine usually takes months to mellow and develop. Many brewers age their beer for 3–12 months, monitoring flavor evolution—oak aging and bottle conditioning are popular enhancement methods.

7. Style & Serving

English barleywine tends to be rich, malty, and less hoppy, while American versions emphasize hop bitterness and aroma. Expect ABVs in the range of 8–12%. Serve it in snifter glasses to fully appreciate its depth.

(See our fun Facebook post about Barleywines here: The Beer Thrillers – Facebook Post.)


Quick Reference Table

Step Key Notes
Grain Bill Plenty of base malt + specialty malts for flavor and color
Water Profile Balanced ions; some chloride for mouthfeel, sulfate for dryness
Mash Temp 152–156 °F to balance fermentables and body
Boil 90+ minutes to concentrate wort and deepen character
Hops Use generously—up to 100 + IBUs for American styles
Yeast High-performance strain; plenty of yeast, consider a starter
Fermentation Use secondary—gives cleaner, better‑aged beer
Aging 3–12+ months; consider oak or bottle aging for complexity
Serving Serve in snifter; enjoy slowly to savor its depth

Top Non-Alcoholic Drinks to Try

2. Sparkling Teas

Sparkling teas bring a sophisticated, effervescent twist to tea drinking. These beverages, made from high-quality tea leaves, are lightly carbonated and often infused with fruits or herbs, offering a refreshing and elegant alternative to champagne or prosecco.

Skip the overly sweet sodas and opt for small-batch, artisanal sodas. These beverages feature natural flavors like ginger, hibiscus, or yuzu, and are perfect for mixing or enjoying on their own.

4. Alcohol-Free Wines

5. Zero-Proof Cocktails

Many bars and restaurants now offer zero-proof cocktail menus, featuring inventive drinks made with fresh juices, herbs, and non-alcoholic spirits. Try making your own at home with recipes that highlight seasonal ingredients and bold flavors.

The craft beer scene is constantly evolving, and finding the latest, most exclusive brews can sometimes feel like a treasure hunt. That’s where Tavour comes in. If you’re a fan of rare, small-batch craft beer from all corners of the U.S., Tavour offers a solution that brings the hunt to your doorstep. Whether you’re a seasoned beer enthusiast or just starting your craft beer journey, Tavour is a must-know platform for discovering beers you won’t find at your local store.

What is Tavour?

Tavour

Tavour is an online craft beer delivery service that specializes in connecting beer lovers with limited-edition, hard-to-find brews from independent breweries across the country. Founded in 2013, Tavour partners with craft breweries—many of which produce small batches that are only available in specific regions. Their mission is simple: to make exceptional craft beer accessible to everyone, no matter where you live.

Tavour is an innovative craft beer delivery service that connects beer enthusiasts with unique and hard-to-find brews from independent breweries across the U.S. Founded in Seattle in 2013, Tavour allows customers to discover small-batch, limited-edition, and specialty beers that may not be available in their local market. The platform curates a wide variety of beers, from IPAs and stouts to sours and barrel-aged options, ensuring there’s something for every taste. Unlike traditional beer subscription boxes, Tavour gives users the freedom to hand-pick the beers they want, offering them the opportunity to explore diverse styles and flavors.

What sets Tavour apart is its emphasis on showcasing lesser-known craft breweries. The service partners with a rotating selection of breweries, giving small, independent beer makers a chance to reach a broader audience. Each beer featured on the app or website comes with detailed descriptions, tasting notes, and insights into the brewery that created it, giving customers a well-rounded understanding of what they’re purchasing. The app is designed to make the selection process easy, with new beers added daily, and users can create their own custom boxes by adding beers to their cart over time, only paying for shipping when they’re ready to receive their order.

Tavour is also highly regarded for its flexibility and transparency. There are no membership fees or monthly commitments—users simply pay for the beers they select. This makes it a popular choice for both casual beer drinkers and dedicated craft beer collectors. Whether someone is looking to try the latest release from a renowned brewery or discover a hidden gem from a small town, Tavour provides a seamless way to access exclusive beers that might otherwise be out of reach. Through its app-based platform, Tavour has created a unique community of beer lovers who can explore, share, and enjoy their passion for craft beer.

How Does Tavour Work?

Tavour operates through its app and website, allowing users to browse a constantly updated selection of unique beers. Here’s how it works:

  1. Sign Up for Free: Create a Tavour account (no subscription required) and get access to a handpicked selection of beers.
  2. Browse the Beers: Every day, Tavour introduces two new beers to their marketplace. You can read detailed descriptions, see brewery information, and even view tasting notes to help make your decision.
  3. Build Your Box: Add as many beers as you want to your “box.” Tavour doesn’t require minimum purchases—just add beers you’re excited to try. Your box ships when you decide, ensuring you get exactly what you want, when you want it.
  4. Pay as You Go: There are no monthly fees or hidden charges—just pay for the beers you select and shipping costs.
  5. Enjoy Your Craft Beer: Once your box is ready, Tavour ships your curated selection right to your door, delivering an unparalleled craft beer experience.

Why Tavour is Perfect for Craft Beer Enthusiasts

Tavour’s main draw is its impressive selection of craft beers from breweries that often fly under the radar. From barrel-aged stouts to hazy IPAs, each beer is carefully curated for quality and uniqueness. Here’s why craft beer lovers should consider Tavour:

  • Exclusive Access: Many of the beers on Tavour are difficult or impossible to find outside their local markets. If you’re chasing after rare releases, Tavour offers access to breweries that are typically only available regionally.

We are working on a massive project here at The Beer Thrillers. We are creating a map of all of the breweries across the United States. State by state we are adding maps of all of the different states with every brewery in each state. (We will eventually get to the US Territories, as well as the Canadian Provinces, and possibly more countries; as well as doing some fun maps like a map of all the breweries we’ve been to, and other fun maps.) You can find the brewery maps here:

We are also working on a project of creating printable and downloadable PDFs and resources to be able to check and keep track of all of the breweries you’ve been to. So stay tuned for that project once we are finished with the Brewery Maps of the US States.
