Genealogy of Morals, the name of one of our most coveted Nietzschean narratives, also happens to be one our barrel-aged imperial stouts. We brewed this wheat imperial stout, added a touch of coffee, and aged it in a selection of bourbon barrels from our favorite distillers.

500ml bottle (thx, Frederic!) at Alex’s. Pours a very dark brown with a beige head. Aroma is bourbon, boozy, dark fruits, chocolate. Same taste. Impressive!
P.S. Blend of GoM and M&C7 is even better than the beers alone! Wow!

Sergey’s hunt; bottled 01.07.2016
Dark brown color, almost no head. Big phenolic aroma, plays well with the dark malts. Smooth, luscious chocolate flavor, moderately sweet, with big alcohol presence, but not too boozy, and some hints of tobacco, liquorice.
Excellent.

Aroma is syrupy with coffee infused bourbon. Smooth feel, strong coffee mixes perfectly with bourbon, low roasted flavor profile.

A deep dark stout with a thin mocha head. In aroma, sweet fruity chocolate malt with light coffee notes, grassy hops, light bourbon barrel notes, woody notes, very nice. In mouth, a nice sweet fruity chocolate malt with light vanilla cake, oily mouth feel, coffee, dark fruits, molasses, alcohol warmth, very nice. Bottle at Big Matt’s Eclipse tasting.

Merci à Marc pour ses expéditions Hill Farmsteadoises. Dégustée 07-05-16. En olfactif, on a évidemment du Bourbon, mais aussi des cerises, des brownies au chocolat, du nougat, des figues. L’équilibre des arômes est parfait. Le visuel est noir, pas totalement opaque, avec des reflets rougeâtres et brunâtres. Très peu de mousse. En bouche, c’est du vrai bonbon. Tous les arômes sont répétés dans une sublime onctuosité. Le nougat est en évidence avec des truffes au chocolat, du chocolat noir, du chocolat au lait, de la mélasse, des cerises des pruneaux, des figues, du caramel. Le café est discret mais donne une juste amertume. Je n’ai jamais gouté une stout avec une telle complexité. Un grand cru magnifique.

500 ml bottle shared with friends at the Hoppy Pub, Thessaloniki, from trade with Frank. Black color with beige brown head. Malty aroma, some coffee, bourbon, alcohol, dark dried fruits, vanilla and coconut, wood, chocolate and cocooa. Sweet and bitter taste like aroma. Full silky oily to creamy body with soft carbonation.
