Dark Nirvana is a new bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout that takes indulgence to the next level. Inspired by the decadence of pecan pie, this stout is infused with marshmallows for a touch of sweetness and 170 pounds of pecans for a bold, nutty character. Aged for 12 months in Kentucky Owl bourbon barrels, it developed a complexity that’s as deep as it is luxurious. The aroma captivates with heavenly notes of crème brûlée, chocolate-covered raisins, and pecan praline. Each sip delivers the warmth of bourbon, the toastiness of pecan pie, and the creamy delight of a milk chocolate shake. With its velvety, full-bodied texture, Dark Nirvana offers a smooth balance of richness and depth that lingers long after the glass is empty. Show Less
