About the Brew

As a portion of our big, bold Black Friday™ Imperial Stout sat in its fermenter, our brewers chucked in coffee and cacao nibs. Already loaded with roasted malt flavors of brown bread, toffee, and molasses, plus a layer of coffee and chocolate, it went into bourbon barrels, where it picked up flavors of vanilla, oak, toasted marshmallow, and roasted almonds.
