Winston Salem, NC
What Our Editors Thought
“Boozy nose with assertive but welcoming chocolate-bourbon aroma. The sip eschews roasty bass notes for smooth caramel mids, punched up with sweetness but tempered by woody tannin. Jovial, with liqueur truffle friendliness.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Powerful yet elegant aroma of dark chocolate and fresh-pressed wine must. The sip doubles down with lovely notes of Belgian chocolate, vintage port, dried cherries, cinnamon, and cola.”
What the Brewers Say
"Blend of non-adjunct stouts aged 2yrs in Weller and Beale Mead barrels; features heavy barrel character and dark fruits."
