Our friends over at Kentucky’s own Willett Distillery have one kind of barrel: wood. And they put two things in them: Bourbon and Rye. We were fortunate enough to get some of their Bourbon barrels, and we put a special coffee-fied version of our Imperial Stout in them.

2023/2024 version on tap. Big full pour pint for 4 dollars. 12.4%. Big, heavy stuff. Rich chocolate, steady barrel, not super defined there...mild Rye notes for sure still, just clearly blended down. Good, better for the price.

12oz bottle pours out dark brown almost black topped with a tan head. Nose is nice chocolate rich coffee roast malts and a bourbon barrel kick. Taste is more of the nice sweet chocolate roast malts rich bourbon barrel.

Draught @ George Keeley, Manhattan (Feb 2023). Listed as 13.1% ABV. Opaque dark brown with very small frothy beige head, mocha-rum aroma, low carbonation, bitter woodsy mocha taste with alcohol overtones, bourbon flavor, thin body, long bitter finish with alcohol aftertaste. Quite strong.

A really nice beer, just properly made. Nothing pokey or intense. Just everything well balanced in proper proportion. Beertemple ams
