Description
Our philosophy is to brew beer with the adventurous craft beer drinker in mind—focusing on hand-crafted, small batches of beer, using local, seasonal and organic ingredients as much as possible.

Our beers are influenced mostly by Belgian and American craft styles, but the addition of premium ingredients such as fruits, spices or wild yeast strains sometimes causes the beers to defy traditional categories. Our barrel aging program features a wide variety of beers aged in wine and spirits barrels, ranging from a Rye barrel-aged Mexican Chocolate Stout to a wild yeast-fermented Saison aged on Missouri wine grapes in French oak wine barrels. We strive to always achieve balance with each of our recipes, making our beers exceptional with food.

Sweetish, malty and caramely with some wheatiness, buttery bourbon, toffee, candy and oaky vanilla vibes. Soft, delicate and sweet. Pretty good.

Sweetish, creamy and lactic with some vanilla ice cream, spices, roastiness, hints of cinnamon, chocolate sauce and earthiness. A bit unbalanced, quite sweet with slight artificial vibes

black and oily pour, settles pitch dark with a small film brown head.
complex very strong aroma of well blended notes, namely, roasted malts, salt licorice, wood, cofffee, bourbon, chocolate, vanilla, coconut. Very intense aroma but everything in it is smooth and velvety.
flavor is coffee, roasted malts, bourbon, wood, salty licorice. end is bitter from malts. not much hops going on that i can taste, but there might be some hidden, bitterness seems to be malts driven mainly. A dessert imp. stout to the slightly sweeter side, with some sweet chocolate like notes. There is a lot of complexity and it seems like the barrelling must have added layers and layers of flavors..

aroma of booze dark toffee, dark caramel, chocolate, coffee, i think a bit of herbal chili like notes, sweet herbs or vegetables.
flavor has a lot of coffee, smooth mellow rounded coffee, some coconut and vanilla, some roasted malts and a chocolate , roasted malts , coffee ending. there is a minute and tiny peppery chili bite in the flavor, but nothing much.
