Mother’s Brewing is pretty geeked about an upcoming release. Inspired by the company’s flagship beer Three Blind Mice comes Imperial Three Blind Mice. This edition is the brown ale aged in Buffalo Trace barrels. The barrels came from local Springfield, Missouri liquor store Brown Derby. The store choses their own barrels each year and sell the bourbon in the barrels. Next stop was Mother’s Brewing.
Imperial Three Blind Mice, once Mother’s little brown beer, is now all grown up and running the show. Left to rest and age in bourbon barrels, this beer is rich and full bodied with chocolate, coffee and caramel malt flavors. It bestows a beautiful bourbon character and balanced finish on its loyal subjects. This is one regal brew fit for a king – out on the town or home in the castle.
