This luscious Imperial Stout has spent a total of 44 months in barrel; 32 months in a Jim Beam barrel and then another 12 months in a Heaven Hill barrel. Fresh additions of coffee and flaked coconut before bottling complement the oaky notes of bourbon, caramel and gooey chocolate brownie.

Panda thanks to Cloin. Near clear dark brown beer, a decent bubbly dark tan head, lasts no time at all. A fair light palate, semi dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Light bodied but slightly viscous dark malts. A good dark chocolate malts. Good rich bourbon soaked ripe fruits. The added coconut and coffee blend in well and give the impression of a much more sophisticated BBA brew. Mild alcohol spice on the semi dry finish. Solid.
