False Idol Brewing Trespasser
What the brewers say
“Double bourbon barrel–aged imperial stout.”
What our panel thought
“The barrel is strong on this one, but the nose is more rye or Canadian whiskey. As it warms, more bourbon comes out, with stout in the back. It’s boozy and warming, with the stout tossing in a bit of roast, more in the very front and in the finish.”
What our editors thought
“Deep, leathery bourbon and dark chocolate in the aroma, with an inky boozy intensity. Nutty in the sip, with lighter chocolate notes—much more accessible than the nose suggests.”
