Life is our 10% abv Bourbon Barrel Aged Milk Stout that spent 12 months in the best Bourbon barrels, it is then intensively infused with freshly roasted Coconut and open Vanilla pods. A terrific flavour combination resulting in a full bodied, rounded Imperial Stout with tropical notes from the Coconut and beautiful Vanilla aromas, all wrapped in Bourbon warmth for a luxurious drinking experience.

Can at home. Opaque black color, average sized brown head. Aroma and flavor are malts, milk chocolate, lactose lightly, bourbon, moderately bitter but also quite sweet. Decent body, decent to medium carbonation. Okay.
