What Our Editors Thought
“Spirit-forward nose brings bourbon in spades with secondary caramel notes. Ethanol thins the body a bit, but the nexus of sweet, nutty, caramel flavors makes for a spirit-forward, spirited flavor.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Rich, chocolate-covered raisin nose. Flavor profile is like a bottle of bourbon stirred into a bowl of dark-chocolate brownie mix. Spicy, with some vanilla at the finish.”
What the Brewers Say
“Blend of barrel-aged stouts. Aromas of crème brûlée, toasted oak, wildflower honey. Flavors of flourless chocolate torte, fig, vanilla bean.”
