For the earliest folks living around Covington, Kentucky, the Ohio River was a crucial artery. Goods and services were made available via flatboat, connecting families and communities to the larger world. That’s how this region got its coal, for example — the rich, dark diamonds that lit the lights, warmed the homes, and fired the power that built this city. We brew that spirit into this strong, dark Imperial Stout, aging it in barrels that give a lasting depth to the finish. From right here in the garage, on West 7th Street, we brew a stout bold enough to light a city.
Dark Charge is a massive Bourbon Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout that showcases Kentucky’s heritage – Bourbon. Dark as the Covington night, this beer features notes of stone fruits, chocolate, coffee, oak, roasted malts, and umami. With an oil-like consistency, and tan head, it is bold enough to inspire you and strong enough to light up a city.
White Chocolate Raspberry: Dark Charge bourbon barrel-aged with raspberry, cocoa nibs, and vanilla beans.

On tap at Braxton - Covington, pours black with a small brown head. Aroma brings out sugary and boozy raspberries, artificial white chocolate, and some roast. Flavour is tart and berry-forward, with tart raspberries, white chocolate, and booze. Quite harsh, tart and boozy. Not a fan of this.
