Wheatwine

Wheatwine is a strong ale style that's essentially a barleywine brewed with a significant portion of wheat malt (typically 40-60%). It features a rich, full body with smooth, wheat-derived creaminess, complex fruity esters, and warming alcohol, while showcasing flavors of bready wheat, honey, caramel, and light spice notes. Originating in the American craft beer movement in the 1980s, it represents a wheat-forward interpretation of the traditional barleywine style.
