One third of the wort used to make this splendid stout came from each of three North Carolina Breweries: Olde Hickory Brewery, The Duck-Rabbit Craft Brewery, and Foothills Brewing.

These were combined and aged in very rare 23 year old bourbon barrels. Olde Rabbit’s Foot Imperial Stout is rich and complex; as satisfying to drink as it was to make. We three craft brewers hope you will enjoy the very special Stout as much as we have.

Brewed with honey and with cocoa nibs added and aged in 23 year old Pappy Van Winkle barrels.

Cheers! - Jamie, Paul & Steven

2009 version brewed at Olde Hickory, later versions at Foothills.

2011 vintage bottle shared by badnewsbeers. Deep opaque brown-black body, thin light brown clumping head. Nose primarily of bourbon and oak, warming, with molasses, toast, and burnt sugars. Bourbon body with big vanilla and coconut and hot, tannic oak backed by burnt sugars. Medium-bodied, oily, and rather dry. Some tobacco leaf in the finish. Soft and very good.
