Beers similar to Fresh Squeezed Old Fashioned

Deschutes Brewery

American Strong Ale·United States·11.9% ABV·One of 8 American Strong Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Fresh Squeezed Old Fashioned's caramel and oaky character. Fresh Squeezed Old Fashioned starts from the grist of Fresh Squeezed IPA, pale two-row, Munich and Crystal 75 malt, is brewed to far higher strength, gets sweet orange zest and is aged in bourbon barrels. It pours a clear reddish amber. Orange peel and candied citrus meet caramel, toffee and brown sugar, while the barrel adds vanilla, oak and a warming whiskey note. The body is full and sweetish, the bitterness restrained, and the long finish leaves a trace of bitter pith. It appears as a yearly vintage.
