Our highly-decorated imperial stout has been hibernating in gorgeous Woodford Reserve bourbon barrels for up to 18 long months. Profound chocolate, vanilla and oak on the nose pay tribute to prolonged exposure to Woodford soaked American Oak. A delicate coffee body gives way to ripples of tobacco and plums on the finish. Unpredictable in its expression, The Black Bear’s personality changes from barrel to barrel.
