Welcome to Barley John's Brew Pub!Barley John's Brew Pub is making beer to distinguish itself from the national brands. Macro breweries concentrate on making vast quantities of beer, we concentrate on making beers full of personality and flavor on a batch by batch basis. |

Seasonal Beer on tap:Belgian Witbier (5.4%abv) - Our Belgian style Witbier was brewed with large portions of unmalted wheat and pilsner malts and flavored with Orange peel and Corriander. Almost white in color and gently hazed with a mild hop presence. The spice and citrus create a refreshing compliment to this style. Maibock (7.5%abv) - We brewed this beer using the traditional double decoction brewing style which releases a multitude of caramalized malty flavors. A fiery orangish hue from the use of Munich malt and hopped with German Hallertau. We cold lagered this beer for 3 months to allow the flavors to come together, it was well worth the wait! Dark Knight (Vintage 2006) - 13.5%abv :The Dark Knight is a bourbon barrel aged double fermented porter. In this case we brew our standard Old 8 Porter and then feed it more sugar to boost the alcohol content. Once the fermentation is complete the Dark Knight to-be is transferred to Bourbon barrels where it ages from 4-8 months, in this case 7 months. We used barrels from the Rip Van Winkle Distillery which housed their premium bourbon - Pappy Van Winkle - for 20 years. This is a very smooth and mellow bourbon which marries nicely with the dark and complex tones of the double fermented porter. We serve this one in a 5.5oz bourbon glass and it is designed to be a slow and enjoyable brew-apertif. Heavy bourbon nose that fades upon sipping, then the chocolate and malt notes from the porter dominate the middle and a slightly tannic/dry finish to complete the taste.
