The brewing wizards at Oskar Blues fill bourbon barrels with Ten FIDY Imperial Stout and then patiently wait a full eight months while the wood works its magic. During that time, the classic stout is infused with deep, rich flavors of vanilla, bourbon and oak. For a big beer that’s layered with complexity, Barrel-Aged Ten FIDY is balanced and temperate on the palate, the extended stay in-barrel ensuring a smooth, warm drinking experience perfect for long, cold winter nights.

(Can) Black colour with big, frothy, brown head. Malty, roasted nose with black coffee, dark chocolate, dried fruit, vanilla, toffee, rum raisins, oak wood and bourbon. Malty, roasted taste with notes of black coffee, dark chocolate, oak wood, vanilla, raisins, coconut, dried apricots, maple syrup, liquorice and a warming finish with a touch of bourbon and a balanced roasty bitterness. Full body, sweet. Complex, powerful, really tasty and quite well balanced for its strength. Great beer!

Opaque colour, small steady brownish head. Cigarbox, cocoa and roasted malts in the nose. Full-bodied. Roasted malts, cigar, some bourbon, oak and alcohol in the flavour. Not sweet. Interesting and very good.
