Description
Horus Aged Ales is a 100% barrel aged brewery located in Oceanside, California. We believe in pushing the boundaries on how much beer can evolve through resting in oak by using a variety of different wine and spirit barrels, adding exotic fruits, and fermenting spontaneously. The complexity of the beer portrays our passion for experimentation and patience required to produce such a unique beverage. Horus has been a decade long dream that is finally coming true and we look forward to introducing our exclusive beer to the fine people of San Diego County.

7.6/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
Poured from a 22 oz bottle. Aroma is malt with lots of chocolate and roast alongside lighter dark caramel and toffee notes. Moderate coffee notes with a roast, nutty character. Hints of alcohol. Pours black with a small, thick, dark mocha head that recedes quickly to the edges where small, thin clumps linger for a bit. No lacing and fairly long legs. Flavor is fairly sweet with moderately strong chocolate notes along with lighter roast, dark caramel and toffee. Medium light bitterness and a bit of alcohol spice. Moderate coffee notes adding a nice nuttiness and coffee character. Mouthfeel is medium full bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and medium low alcohol warmth. Overall, a decent stout. Solid malt profile with some decent coffee notes. The vanilla is super faint and almost unnoticed.
