Brewing Notes

Mashed at a higher temperature for a finish with a bit of perceived sweetness using dark roasted malts which impart roasty notes of coffee and dark chocolate, and oats for a thicker, creamy mouthfeel and head retention. Once fermentation is finished, the beer is aged in our freshly emptied Bourbon Barrels for approximately 7 months.

Tasting Notes

A Deep black beer with a creamy brown head. Rich chocolate aromas, with notes of bourbon and dark fruit. The taste is full of bakers chocolate, brown sugar, and raisins. This beer finishes slightly warm, with a full bodied, smooth mouthfeel.
