A Bourbon Barrel Aged Fluffernutter Sandwich Inspired Imperial Stout. Need we say more?

Adversarial Patterns is a collaboration between Structures Brewing and Fort George. Aged for 36 months in Willet Bourbon Barrels and conditioned on marshmallow, chocolate, vanilla, peanuts and hazelnuts. Is it a dessert? Is it breakfast? Is it an act of defiance against the neural network or is it a fashion statement? Whatever it is, it’s dang good.

Dark Dark brown. No head. Big marshmallow and vanilla on the nose. Thick, a bit of that pbc2 but it’s washed out by bourbon and chocolate. And vanilla, lots of that. Burly, not entirely refined, but it’s very good as one expects from Fort George.

Draft at the Handlebar. Near black pour, tiny ring of bubbles around the rim. Aroma is sweet, marshmallow, roasty malts. Not picking up much peanut in the taste , roasty, chocolate and heaps of marshmallow. Maybe shake the keg a bit? Slippery, slick feel, and really sweet.

16.9 oz. bottle, pours black, almost no head. Nose is full of intense peanuts and marshmallow upfront, wrapped up in nice bourbon barrels. Flavour is complex, with a nice melange of peanuts, marshmallow, bourbon barrels, vanilla, and some cocoa. Cohesive, complex, and wonderfully structured. Excellent.

500mL bottle. Pours very dark brown with minimal head. Tons of marshmallow, peanuts, and hazelnut on the nose. Flavour has a similar line-up of adjuncts with a solid roasty malt base and well-integrated bourbon barrels.
