What Our Panel Thought

Aroma: “Lots of barrel with whiskey and vanilla. Dark chocolate malt, coffee, and rich malt. Everything is really intense.”

Flavor: “Massively rich and complex, tons of chocolate, caramel, oak, whiskey with a nice boozy finish that isn’t overly hot. The bitterness and alcoholic finish keep the sweetness in check, and the complex character lingers really well.”

Overall: “A really good huge, complex barrel-aged stout. Tons of stout richness that is accentuated by the spicy, boozy barrel character. Everything is nicely balanced and complex.”

What the Brewers Say

“The taste is rich with deep roasted malts, cocoa, coffee, and a touch of vanilla balanced perfectly against the alcohol.”
