    Sucaba was one of the first components created as part of our annual barrel-aged Anniversary Ale blend starting in 2006 and ultimately became a cult favorite. Sucaba has ever since remained part of our Proprietor’s Vintage family of barrel-aged beers, but sightings of it have been relatively rare in recent years—until now. For the tenth batch of this beer, we stayed true to the original recipe and, as always, aged it for a year in bourbon barrels. The beauty of Sucaba is that its English barleywine style offers a lighter textural canvas, allowing the barrel character to predominate.
