Stout aged in oak barrels.

Barrel #330 is the first stout to be in the Take 1 series. The recipe showcases Adderley, a stout driven by oats, brown sugar, and a long boil. The stout began its journey in a Laird's Apple Brandy cask for the first 6 months. The beer was then racked into a Buffalo Trace Single Barrel Selection barrel to rest for a year. A deep burnt caramel character emerges, with notes of vanilla, spiced apple, and dark chocolate. The blend coats the palate with cola-spiced chocolate and vanilla tapioca custard.
