Apple Brandy Barrel Noir is an imperial stout we age in apple brandy barrels. The beer has major notes of chocolate, coffee, apple, and vanilla in the flavor and aroma. The stout is thick and slightly sweet, making for a smooth, slow sipping beer. Enjoy now, or lay a few down to try it with some age on it.

The side of Pappy van Winkle works quite well with it.

Bottle, shared round at Jeff’s. Darkest brown. No head. Nose has fudge and chocolate. Cocoa pops. Some sweet oak. Apple pie. Some treacle. Bonfire toffee. Taste is sticky sweet, and chocolatey, coffee bitter. Smooth and silky mouthfeel. Sweet and really chewy finish.

Flaska från Beergium, ca ett år gammal. Tusen tack Samuel214. Svart nästan utan något skum alls. I doften toffee, lakritskola, bastuträ, tjärpastill, mycket fatkaraktär, äppelbrandy, likörpralin, marsipan och lite kryddiga, spritiga inslag. Stor, maffig kropp som förväntat. Igen väldigt mycket fatkaraktär med ek och alkohol som värmer på bra. Nästan lite spritig. I eftersmaken mörkt socker, kaffe, vanilj, toffee och en aning choklad. I jmf med exempelvis Bomb, Paradise och även Bomb BA så känns fatlagringen av mycket tydligare här. Mycket mer ektoner. Riktigt smarrigt!
