This beer represents the guy who wants all the best life has to offer ...and is willing to pay for it. He will order the best wine on the menu while pulling out a fancy cigar and talking about his house near Cannes. A guy who lives life. He would love this. An imperial oatmeal stout aged on 2 separate barrels, and blended together - Laphroiag and Kentucky Bourbon.
