It is being replaced with a bigger and badder Wheatwine/Braggot.

If you tasted Dave's original barleywine (Bushwakker Strathdee Old Barleywine) and his original wheatwine/braggot (Bushwakker Centennial Wheatwine), you will not be dissapointed with this news. Still 2 of the best beers I have ever tasted!
