The 2023 iteration was aged in bourbon barrels for 21 months and then paired with espresso roast "Zanzibar Peaberry" Tanzanian beans from Propeller Coffee, which is known for having fruitier characteristics over roasty notes. We only have ~500 bottles of it, so you'll need to be quick!
Consider this rare stout decadent and full-bodied, with intense notes of cherry, cocoa, coffee, and bourbon spirit character. Also, the perfect antidote to drudgery. Everything is fine!
