What Our Editors Thought
“Soft nutty caramel on the nose, with hints of coconut and vanilla. The sip sprawls a bit, with hints of red fruit and tobacco in a loose boozy jam session. It trades roasty bass notes for a deep caramel twang.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Subtle nose with notes of plum, vanilla, blackstrap molasses, and soy sauce. The body is thick and chewy, suggesting brownie edges and crème brûlée. The strong alcohol presence keeps the beer from truly shining.”
What the Brewers Say
"William Larue Weller bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout."
