Imperial stout aged in Heaven Hill whiskey and maple bourbon barrels. Both barrels were laid to age following our 2024 Pohjala collab 'Welcome To Your Doom', and have been on oak for 15 months before blending together. Expect a complex tapestry of molasses, maple and oak character containing a robust stout shadow. To be savoured,

Panda from Colin. Cheers. Dark and glossy. Thin beige head. Aroma is barrel dominated - boozy and sour. Some coffee and dark sugar. Flavourwise it's gotba sweet molasses streak with some light sourness. Latterly a boozy kick. Smooth flava. Thick. Oily. Soft carbonation with a gentle fizz. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Nice yo.

Keg at Cool Head Craft Beer Garden Festival 2026.
The beer poured black in color.
Roasted malty, burnt notes, full bodied. Syrupy sweet finish. Quite delicious. Chocolate as well in there, not much barrel really.

Sweet, syrupy and slightly roasty with some earthiness and coffee, loads of maple syrup. Syrup overpowers the barrel
