To create this cocktail-inspired beer, the brewers started with their thick, rich Barrel Constrictor base brewed with brown sugar. Then they aged it in Templeton Rye barrels for a full year and infused it with orange zest and real aromatic bitters. Look for malty chocolate and a touch of roastiness balanced against bright citrus notes and the warming spice of Angostura. Hints of top-shelf bourbon from the barrels round things out beautifully!
