Bring Out Your Dead (2013)

Imperial Stout Aged in Cognac Barrels
10.0% ALC./VOL.
500mL

This decadent imperial stout was transferred to cognac barrels after a long primary fermentation. Aged for 6 months in the barrel, the velvety brew is one serious piece of work. Full bodied, with subtle oak and cognac character.

What it smells and tastes like: So well-balanced, and so much going on. Aromas of cognac, subtle smoke, oak, earth, and toasted malts. Rich flavours of cocoa, molasses, booze, and milk chocolate. Subtly sweet, viscous, and dangerous.
