For this variant we aged Bourbon County Stout in rye whiskey barrels, then added raspberry and blackberry juice and puree from Michigan and Washington. The process resulted in complex jammy fruit notes that are prominent but well integrated with the caramel and chocolate flavors of the beer and spicy rye character from the barrels.

A deep dark stout with a thin brown head. In aroma, complex mix of chocolate and pungent coffee resins, light sulfur, very nice. In mouth, a nice sweet fruity chocolate malt with berries, coffee grind, floral resinous hops, loads of alcohol, very rich. Xmas Ottawa gathering Dec 13 2013.

Bottle share at DLD. Sweet tart blackberry, chocolate, and molasses aroma. Black with a small tan head. Sweet tart blackberry, coffee, chocolate, light spicy flavor with a roasty bitter finish. Full body, soft carbonation. Thanks to the great group of people from Chicago who were willing to share this!

Bottle signed by Grave Digger shared by Chris at RBWG. Pours a dark brown with beige head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is roast whiskey and rye. Thin mouthfeel with strong roast and very sweet. Jammy as hell, light dryness. Good.

Bittle at RBWG hotel tasting. Pours black brown with a fine, beige cream head. Some black raspberries in the nose. Big sweet flavor, dark malta, some earthy bitterness. Heavy sweetness. Full bodies with fine carbonation. Sweet, sticky sugars to finish, some dry raspberries, bit of cocoa. Not altogether bad.
