Barrel Aged Black Boar

Imperial Oatmeal Stout

For our third edition of the Barrel Aged Black Boar, I chose some very special 12-year Bourbon barrels, which compliment the complex dark chocolate and rich coffee flavours of the Black Boar. Expect additional notes of warm vanilla, sweet honey, dark fruits, and luch American Oak.

Description

An intensely flavoured, big dark ale. Roasty and bittersweet, with a noticeable alcohol presence. Dark fruit flavours meld with roasted coffee and dark chocolate notes to create a very full-bodied, velvety, luscious texture. Aged in Bourbon barrels for 3 months to enhance this already complex beer with soft oak and lush vanilla.

Tasting Notes

Rich and intensely complex flavours of dark chocolate, roasted malts, and robust coffee. Full-bodied, with soft carbonation; finishing with a mellow alcohol warmth. The layers of vanilla and bourbon will remind you of warm nights infront of the fire.
