Imperial stout aged in single malt barrels.
Aged in peated scotch barrels, this big stout holds rich flavours of milk chocolate, toasty graham crackers and dried fruits. The scotch barrels lend another layer of complexity with subtle notes of smoke and spirit. So bold, yet so smooth. Be wary, this beer packs a punch!

500mL bottle. Pours black with a tan head. Dark chocolate and whiskey on the nose. Flavour has smoky whiskey barrels, dark chocolate, roasted malts, bitter finish and a bit boozy. Rich mouthfeel. Very nice.

Poured from 500mL bottle (thanks Taylor). Near black with beige head. A bit of iodine and feint tartness with some mild dark sugars. Close to turning.

500mL bottle, pours black with a medium beige head. Aroma has a rather muddled peated character, with a light-to-medium roast base. Flavour is muddled and almost a bit sour, with lower-quality whiskey barrels, almost a bit of tartness, and medium roast. The barrels aren't all that impressive, and that palate is too tart and thin. Not too impressed with this one, but it's not bad.

Dark brown. The aroma is sourish, smokey. On the palate, it's cleaner, has some peat smoke, decent body...maybe a touch more of that tartness...this might be starting to turn. Some nice brown sugars.
