Imperial brown ale aged in three bold whiskey barrels and finished on French Oak staves. Notes of toasted nuts, caramel, oak, and soft rye spice echo through this deeply warming, wood-kissed pour.

12 oz. bottle, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is full of toasted nuts, medium roast, oak, and attenuated out dark sugars. Flavour is full of dry toasted oak, whiskey barrels, medium roast, and a hint of vanillin. Fairly dry, finishing with plenty of whiskey and toasted oak, with minimal sugars. Excellent.
