Other Notes: Imperial Stout aged in Basil Hayden bourbon whiskey barrels

Brewer Description: (from Untappd) This imperial stout matured for 23 months in 10 year old Basil Hayden bourbon barrels. It exudes a complex tapestry of flavors. Expect a deep, mahogany-hued liquid, with a soft bourbon warmth, accompanied by notes of vanilla, oak, and chocolate bonbons. These barrels were super elegant! Our prolonged aging process imparts a smooth and velvety texture, enhancing the overall complexity. Sip and savor!!
