Perfect Idjit
Tennessee Whisky & Kentucky Bourbon Double Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout
A full bodied imperial stout with flavors from dark malts and the perfect amount of hops. Then barrel aged in two different barrel-types. Perfect!
This beer's base is our classic imperial stout, Idjit, which started out as an experiment to see how strong a beer we could brew. And even though that experiment never saw the light of day, it taught us a lot.
With that knowledge, we created Idjit, a potent and unique true imperial stout loaded with the flavor of tonnes of dark malts and just the right amount of hops. It is black as the night and as smooth as it is powerful. Barrel aging Idjit was always a given. And when we do, it always turns out perfect.
This double-barrel-aged version is the third iteration of Perfect Idjit. The best of American whisky and bourbon, infused into our forever stout. And even though we love it, It's not pastry. It's not chocolate sauce. It's not an adjunct bonanza. It's a straightforward, no-nonsense, like back in the day, knock your socks off, malt-cake of a beer. And it's perfect. Adult!

(Keg at Juova, 20250522) The beer poured black. Its head was small and lightly brown. Aroma had burnt malts, smoke, dark chocolate, vanilla and ash. Palate was full bodied and dry with medium carbonation. Flavours were burnt malts, dark chocolate, wood, vanilla, vinous notes, ash and bitterness. Aftertaste had burnt malts, wood, ash and bitterness. A pleasant brew that hid its ABV very well and blended the ashy notes nicely.

pitch dark, smooth light brown to brown head.
aroma of roasted malts, chocolate like notes, lots of various boozy and woody notes from the barrel aging, quite complex, charred wood, faint vanilla. quite complex strong imp stout aroma with notes driven by malts and barrels, not all sorts of stuff added to the beer.
flavor is roasted malts, woddy boozy notes that actually add a bit of quad like dark dried fruitiness to the flavor, strog roasted malty and hoppy ending that intensifies into the far aftertaste. That part is excellent. All in all a pretty solid BA imp stout with a tiny tiny bit of quad like fruitiness, which you may like or dislike.

CBHWS2025. Pitch black colour with a mediumsized off-white foamy head. Aroma is coffee, chocolate, some bourbon, vanilla and mild wooden tones with a bit of alcohol too. Flavour is alcohol, some bourbon, vanilla, coffee, chocolate and mild syrupy tones with some slight spiciness to it as well. Long sweet aftertaste.
