Imperial stout aged in bourbon barrels

Namesake aside, this bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout is worthy of pouring every day of the week. Both elegant and complex, it exemplifies over 10 years of experience in barrel-aging technique. Notes of dark chocolate and vanilla are rounded out with hints of freshly picked cherries, dried figs, and molasses.

Tap (Szynkarnia, Wrocław). W aromacie świetna wanilia, mega intensywna, plus czekolada. Smak nieco słabszy, mimo przyjemnych nut waniliowych , czekoladowych pojawia się kwasek i nutka alkoholu, nie jakaś mocna ale nie do końca przyjemna. Pije się całkiem przyjemnie ale efektu wow poza aromatem to nie ma.
