We burned the midnight oil collaborating with our friends at Weldworks Brewing Co to create one of the biggest beers we’ve ever brewed. A massive stout stuffed with specialty malts matured for 18 months in special Parker’s Heritage Whiskey barrels, the final blend radiates with sweet flavors of dark chocolate, caramel, roasted coffee, vanilla and whiskey.

Taster at the Weldwerks Invitational, 2025. Pours black, with a small, bubbly, tan head. The nose is sherry, walnut, dark chocolate, cinnamon, and pine. Sweet and grainy, with a mellow, earthy bitterness. Heavy body, sharp, and sticky. Nice, aggressive, and complex enough.
