What the brewers say

“Imperial stout aged 12–18 months in whiskey barrels.”

What our panel thought

“Smells like chocolate-chip pancakes on the griddle. A powerhouse of flavor: chocolate, dates, bourbon, black Twizzlers, caramel. The barrel flavors are there but struggle a bit to surface. Rich, but not overly sweet. Vanilla from barrel plays nicely with chocolate.”

What our editors thought

“Aroma of deep, dark, sweet chocolate and espresso with oaky vanilla. Flavor: medium-sweet chocolate, deep rich coffee, sweet molasses. Finishes sweet, but not cloying.”
