Our first release from the Spinning Mill Barrel Project has taken an amazing base stout brewed with 7 different malts for an incredibly complex taste and texture, to which we added lashings of Muscovado sugar - this is a deliciously silky stout, sweet and roasty, with notes of raisins and dark red berries.

We've then squirrelled this concoction away within intense Heaven Hill bourbon barrels, adding oak, vanilla, maple and spicy flavours.

This beer would not be possible without our "Famity" crowdfund where we turned to our community to support our growth and they answered us in spades.

Bottle thanks to my bro. It pours darkest brown to black with a small fluffy off -white head. The aroma is sweet and intoxicating, bing vanilla character, vanilla fudge, toffee, intoxicating and heady bourbon character, crunchie bar, honeycomb crunch, milk chocolate, brownies and marzipan. The taste is initially smooth, quite sweet upfront, dried fruits, fruit cake, sugary, toasty, roasty, vanilla, marzipan, cake frosting, toffee, boozey slap, prickly spice, splash of cola and bourbon soaked oak with a drying, toasty and charred finale. Medium+ body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. A bit sweeter and perhaps not as much body as I had hoped. It's a decent beer no doubt, but not the best of series.
