Have always loved porters and stouts. In recent years I have grown to really enjoy European and American lagers.

Bottle #601/ 720. Aroma shows bolder vanilla, light oak, melted caramel. The flavor shows strong vanilla with maybe a note of almond hiding in there. The adjuncts do tome down the barrel quite a bit. Sweet but not cloying. Another really well made Barreled Souls brew.

Bottle. #243/720. Flavor is attributed to the bourbon. Oak, coconut, mild spice. The flavor has mild sweet bourbon that is mildly oaky. Hints of caramel, vanilla, and soft rye. Warming after the sip. Alcohol doesn’t burn. Body is lean but the flavor is very nice.

Thank you Clark! Aroma is bold, natural strawberr with some mild shortbread. Smells exactly like the dessert. Flavor follows with a steady amount of tart berry. Plenty of tartness. Well crafted!!

16 oz can Thank you Clark! Aroma has mild white grape, mango, house yeast. Flavor follows the aroma with a soft texture and subtle bitterness. Maybe some light tangerine. Good.

Bottle. #621/1020. Aroma is a great mix of banana and spice that gives a “banana bread” essence. Flavor still shows a strong amount of Willett and banana. Willett is of course spicy. Alcohol shows light in the finish. I like it but again the Willett spice dominate.

16 oz can Thank you Clark!!! Wow! Aroma is really great! Bold coconut, chocolate, mild bourbon. Equal parts coconut, chocolate, and a steady amount of barrel to balance. Soft spice. A light warming after the swallow. They got the dessert down pat!! Love it!!

Bottle. 16/460. Aroma is bold spicy Willet bourbon. Maybe some chocolate but it’s a fuck ton of Willet. Barreled Souls went crazy on Willet two years ago. I don’t think Willet is my preference. Just MHO.

500 ml bottle. Thank you Clark! Appearance is pitch black with an oily film and mild chunks of peanut butter cups floating in the stout. Chocolate, some rye bourbon and vanilla. Flavor is not very cohesive. A blast of chocolate and sugar, upfront, and then turns into pretty intense rye barrel in the finish.

16 oz can shared by tfontana, thank you Tom! Aroma shows me pineapple and mild peach. Flavor base is white bready malt and mild herb. I don’t really find coconut anyplace.. I think this marriage of hops is pretty decent.

375 ml, thank you TJ. Aroma is soft lemon, mild Brett, light old peaches.
Never follow suit. The Brett is very mild and plenty of different older fruits. Also has old basement and dusty / cob web hints. Super smooth!
