What Our Editors Thought
“Firm tannins frame a harmonious interplay of bourbon and red wine. Dark cherry, plum, tobacco, and burnt-sugar sweetness settle into a dry, dark-chocolate finish.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Boozy, coffee-like, whiskey nose filled with very rich dark chocolate. You can smell the thickness of what’s to come. Rich bourbon and deep, nutty chocolate lead into a sharp alcohol bite.”
What the Brewers Say
“Blend of imperial stouts aged in red wine, bourbon, and amaro barrels.”
