This barrel-aged ale uses barley, rye, and corn, plus cherry wood smoked malt to create a huge imperial stout. To top it alp off, we barrel age the beer for three months! The result is a rich and Imperial Smoked Stout with hints of caramel, vanilla, and spice.
Brewed with smoked Dark Matter coffee.
2019 Speciality.
