Imperial Stout Aged in Cognac Barrels

A fantastic intersection of oak, spirit character, and decadent stout — and a special release for our 10th Anniversary!

Returning for the first time since 2020, and the seventh time ever, BOYD is our Imperial Stout aged extensively in cognac barrels. It's feisty and warming, with low bitterness, appropriately mild carbonation, notes of anise, brown sugar, figs, and subtle maraschino cherry.
