This super-tasty Triple Oatmeal Russian Imperial Stout is rich, dark and flavorful - the way we like it - this beer is intense! Reaching a whole new level of taste, a wonderful complexity and depth is imparted from aging in select Bourbon barrels. Rich flavors and aromas of oak, vanilla & whiskey abound, to perfectly compliment the intense character of T.O.R.I.S.

22 oz. bottle, pours black with a small white head. Aroma brings out booze, oats, bourbon barrels, and light toasted malt. Flavour is more balanced, with sweet roasted malt, bourbon, booze and oats. Sweet, boozy and barrel-heavy. Lovely.
