The barrel beasts have risen from their slumbering dreams of oak, coffee & vanilla, which means our coveted holiday Balam elixirs will be wrought upon the world forthwith! To showcase our seasonal BBA stout in unique ways, each blend is aged in a choice bourbon barrels, paired with local roasted coffee and whole exotic vanilla beans, then complimented with a touch of smoked malt to give this unique recipe the complexity and depth of flavour it’s known for. This year’s Balam is all about big chocolate, extra roast, and delicious coffee only mellowed by a sweetness from a vanilla and molasses finish.

Thanks fonefan! Pitch black colour, small head. Aroma is coffee, chocolate, some mild toffee liquorice and a bit rye and roasted tones. Flavour is liquorice, chocolate, some coffee with mild roasted tones as well. Quite sweet. Alcohol does also give a warming feel to it, but it doesn't taste boozy.
