Expect a smooth finishing dry style Stout with harmonious flavors of coffee, roast and chocolate. Aged in Quails’ Gate Vineyards Marechal Foch barrels for one year, the time in barrel has definitely mellowed out the roasted edges of the malt and added in layers of dark fruit and oak notes. A wonderfully complex brew, coming in at a sessionable 5% ABV and 35 IBU, it will be perfect for enjoying during the early part of the Fall season.

Tasting at SF
Black color. Aroma of dark bread, light chocolate; the body is dry and weak, hints of chocolate and red wine.
Barrel aging a weak dry Stout is a weird idea.

750ml bottle shared at Brian’s office. Pours a very dark brown with a beige head. Aroma is roasted malt with some grainy notes. Same taste, with some sour notes and quite high roasted malt bitterness. Meh.

Bottle - Dark sweet roast and some red barrel. Deep brown with a small light brown head. Dark and roasty with a light body and some light red vinous notes.

Dark brown. Only a little bit of head. A little bit toasty, with some cocoa notes. Thin and more or less chocolatey. A little vinous character, touch of wood, but that’s really about it. I’m not thinking this has the complexity I’d like to see - really the beer came out okay but conceptually it needed to be a stronger beer.
