Port, PX Sherry and Whisky
One of our most luxurious barrel-aged stouts. This blend brings together Belgian Stout aged 27 months in Port barrels (raisin, red fruit, walnut), Rye Stout aged 9 months in PX Sherry barrels from Bodegas Fernández-Gao (caramel, fig, spice) and Multi Grain Wine aged 22 months in Wyoming whiskey barrels (oak, fudge, vanilla warmth).
The secret for this beer lies in the extra dimension: a house-made syrup of steamed dried fruit—plums, figs, dates, apricots, and peaches—slow-cooked into a velvety compote that melds seamlessly with the barrel character.
The result is a rich, layered profile where fortified wine sweetness, sherry spice, and bourbon warmth intertwine with dark fruit, toffee and chocolate in an oily body and long, warming finish. Barrel-driven and irresistibly complex. Cheers!

Can. Color: Black, dense brown head. Aroma: Mix of roasted malt, stone fruit, Port and Sherry notes. Taste: Dense and smooth, bit creamy body. Sweetish blend of fruity Sherry and Port, dried stone fruit and dark fruit (apricot, peach, fig, date, some raisin), roasted malt, hints of coffee, spicy rye hints, caramel-chocolate fudge. Medium sweet, moderate bitterness. Full body, below average carbonation. Slow sipper. Sticky mouthfeel. Boozy hints. Nice complexity. A lot of flavors, making this an interesting but also complex beer.
