Bourbon Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout
Taking awesome and doubling it can only be double awesome. It’s math.
This is essentially the 35K recipe doubled. Double roasty, double chocolatey, double creamy, double delicious. Then we decided to make it 2.5X awesome by aging it in Angel’s Envy barrels for a really, really long time. The bourbon and oak flavors perfectly compliment the massive flavors in the double mega imperial milk stout. You don’t swim in this beer, it swims in you!

Black with a brown head - Roasted malt aroma with some bourbon - Dark malt body with some charred wood from barrel and with some vanilla and dark fruity flavours with coffee and chocolate - The dark malty flavours with some vanilla and wood goes into the finish - This was real good

Bottle, 75cl, kindly shared by bergstaden. A really dark brown beer, with a small, dense, light tan head. The aroma is quite lightly alcoholic considering the ABV, with roasted malts, coffee, dark chocolate, some booze and brown sugar. It's full-bodied, lightly warming and softly carbonated, with a good dash of sweetness in the flavor. Roasted malts, coffee, dark chocolate, brown sugar, molasses notes and a touch of dried fruits in the flavor. Caramel notes. Lasting finish with a good dash of sweetness and a pleasant boozy touch. Nice, and impressively little alcohol considering it's at 13.1%. 190929

Draught, 13%. Vanilla aroma. Black colour. Creamy dark brown colour. Roasted and very sweet flavour. Good vanilla note. Good but too sweet for me.

Draft at beertemple. Aroma of milk chocolate, licorice, lactose, malt, vanilla and booze. Taste has milk chocolate, licorice, vanilla, sweet lactose and lots of malt. Too much lactose for me.
