Chocolate Oatmeal Imperial Stout that has been aged in Sazerac Rye Barrels for 21 months. The recipe leans heavy on Oats (both malted & flaked) and also utilizes a variety of chocolate malts (pale chocolate, chocolate wheat, chocolate malt, etc.). No other added adjuncts. Silky mouthfeel, full body, totally delicious.
All 2023 Phenom Rye are filled in black cans.

Brewery draught, 1/17/25.
Clear, dark. Small head.
Very spicy, very concentrated with a caramel backing. It's not the most complex, perhaps, but it knows what it wants to do. No booze.
Soft, malty, spicy, lots of caramel. Good body and attenuation. Intense rye, but not burning or overdone. The malt is singular. Classy, flavorful, approachable.
