We pulled the beer after 9 months and 10 days. The resulting stout has those cinnamon, nutmeg, and baking spices the barrels are famous for, with a touch of vanilla and whiskey as well as strong wood flavors from the barrel.
This is our first release of a beer aged in Amburana barrels. Amburana wood, sometimes called "Brazilian oak," is a hardwood native to South America, particularly Brazil, known for its unique flavor profile and aroma.
