Beyond Good and Evil is the name of our barrel-aged maple imperial stout, crafted with malted wheat and local Vermont maple syrup. Brewed in March 2020, its initial rest in hand-selected Bourbon barrels spanned nearly two years. Then, the blend moved into freshly emptied Bourbon barrels of different provenance for another year to provide additional complexity and expression of both barrel and beer.
Beyond Good and Evil is one of Nietzsche’s most powerful works, challenging convention, ‘wisdom’ and ‘morality;’ urging us to transcend the restrictive, bounded concepts of good and evil; and confronting the relative nature of ‘knowledge.’ This both informs and inspires our work.

Bottle: Poured a pitch-black color stout with a dark brown foamy head with some retention and some lacing notes. Aroma of chocolate notes with some strong bourbon notes and light maple notes. Taste is also a mix of chocolate malt notes with some bourbon and vanilla notes with some light maple notes. Body is pretty full with average carbonation with some light discernible alcohol notes. Solid double barrel-aged stout with good balance overall.

Bottle thanks to Russell. Pours black with small tan head. The aroma is strong maple, roast, wood, bourbon. Slick body, maple, roasted malt, dark fruit, boozy, very good.
