This big, complex brew has spent the better part this past year slumbering in choice bourbon and rye barrels from our neighbors at the Colts Neck Stillhouse. To celebrate our first anniversary, we have carefully blended these mature ales back together along with a portion of fresh, rich imperial stout. The final product has layers of bold flavors alongside more nuanced notes. We get aromas and flavors of dark chocolate, candied dates, bourbon, vanilla, espresso, almond, and caramelized sugar.
Cheers to one year!

500 ml bottle from the Source, 11/15/20. Dark brown pour with a really nice creamy foam of brown head. Lots of bourbon / barrel booziness over top of the roast and unsweetened coffee. Nice, flavorful, classic, barrel aged stout. Don't see a lot of these anymore since everything is so adjunct heavy, this is a nice change of pace-try.
