This blend of strong dark porters was aged in oak, wine and Bourbon barrels, then blended with a dark porter that had been brewed with vanilla beans and cinnamon. The blend was then aged an additional 14 months on dates

Draught at Gourmet Haus. This is such an interesting beer. When you search deep, you really taste and smell the nuances of the imperial porter in there. The sourness takes some getting used to in the porter, but it really becomes a nicely complex beer.

At the barrelroom: pours blackish with beige head. Aroma is funk, chocolate and coffee. Roasty chocolate and a lot of sourness. Lingering aftertaste. Powerful body. Slight vanilla notes. Quite large. Good.

Draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver
Dark color, near black. Aroma of alcohol, traces of acetic acid or acetone, dark fruits. Full bodied, the elements come together in the taste, chocolate malt with dark fruits, balsamic vinegar, wood astringency, and bourbon oak.
Wonderful.

On tap at Alibi Room during Oregon Breweries Tap Takeover. Pours a very dark brown with a weak tan head. Aroma is sour and sweet fermented berries and barrel notes, some alcohol. Taste same. Very nice and pleasant.

Sample at Borefts 2016. Poured a medium brown with a frothy light tan head. The aroma is rich alcohol bourbon. The flavour is moderate sweet with a rich sweet malt oily molasses alcoholic palate. Full bodied with soft carbonation.
