Barrel Aged Raspberry Moonlit (Red Wax) is our Imperial Stout that rested for many moons in freshly emptied Weller Bourbon Barrels. Aged to perfection. Conditioned on plump Raspberries to present rich fruit balanced with extensive barrel depth.

All of our Barrel Aged Moonlit bottles are lightly carbonated through bottle conditioning to preserve the mouthfeel and the cask like condition that our brewery team enjoys while sampling these pristine barrels. Enjoy them now or condition them in your cellar for many moons to come.

50cl bottle from Rieker in Lancaster, pours an opaque black with a ring of beige head. Raspberry soda and booze perfume out of the bottle, once it hits the glass it has caramel, florals, some candied nuts. Flavor has some nice barrel and wood char, some chocolate now, some chocolate covered cherry, a little raspberry jam, toast too. Finishes full bodied, but very smooth. Very drinkable at 10.5%. The kind folks at Rieker offered me a sample of a bottle when it was very fresh and it had a TON more fresh raspberry. That’s not a complaint about the beer or this bottle of it, just an observation.
