Coffee Chocolate Stout Bourbon Barrel Aged with Maple Syrup
It’s Time To Be Legendary
The legendary CBS returns! CBS is a bold imperial stout featuring chocolate and coffee that has aged in bourbon barrels with maple syrup. The sweet, but balanced, aromas of maple syrup and chocolate fill the air, while notes of toasted oak and vanilla become more profound with every sip – melding together in what can only be described as a transcendent drinking experience.

Bottle - black pour - heavy on the coffee, with slight abrasiveness, but not substantially so - warming, but not boozy - the maple is present, but not overpowering - oak is fairly strong throughout - finish had a light sharpness, but on the whole largely balanced - it’s good.

Nice barrel at room temp. Rich chocolate, smooth coffee. Spent all day waiting for Sunday night. 🦅 🦁 coming up.
