To celebrate the inception of the GOAL. brand, The Child is a Double Barrel Aged Imperial Stout aged in a 10 year Buffalo Trace barrel then a Vanilla Bourbon barrel treated with with a blend of Madagascar and Tahitian Vanilla Beans. This beer was inspired by classic stouts and Bake Kujira. Classic stouts - where the barrel and a single adjunct, either coffee or vanilla normally shined. Bake Kujira - natural collaboration leading to the creation of something great. It shares the same Big Poppa base beer: Luther; and the selection of one preferred barrel from the Luther filled barrel lot to finish. This is a collaboration with GOAL. : Get Out And Live.

Pikzwarte kleur zonder schuim. Geur is zeer zoet, vanille, marshmallow. Retronasaal: heeeel zoet, vanille, beetje kunstmatig, boozy. Smaak: zeer zoet, marshmallow. Dikke body. Alcohol lijkt niet 17%. Smaak blijft lang hangen.

Bottle shared at the 2025 Pre-Christmas/NY Zaandam Borrel. Poured almost black in colour with little life. The aroma is roasty, herbal, light chocolate. The flavour is over moderate sweet, with a silky smooth, super rich, oily, chocolate, herbal, aromatic, warm boozy, liquorice bitter palate. Full bodied with soft carbonation.

Black with no head. Big marshmallow aroma with bourbon, booze, candy, chocolate and vanilla. Very sweet. Definitely boozy with noticeable alcohol warmth. I hoped for more, but it’s a bit rough around the edges.

75cl Fles, sample bij Kerst/NY tasting Zaandam. Zwarte kleur, dunne beige kraag. Boozy, vanillesuiker, eik, bourbon, marshmallows, gebrande mout, chocolade, lijkt in 1e instantie heftig zoet maar wordt met opwarmen steeds beter, de vatrijping komt wat meer naar voren wat erg fijn is. Volle body, al is het niet de blubberdikke rammer die verwacht werd, nog altijd erg lekker.
