Barrel Aged Imperial Brown. A bigger, badder version of our classic brown. A year in rye whiskey barrels gives this dark rye ale caramel and vanilla entes layered on top of a toasty, chocolate base

Poured from a 500 ml bottle purchased at the brewery into two goblets.
Look: Very dark brown with a 1/2” tan head that dissipated pretty quickly but left nice lacing.
Nose: Alcohol dominant, dried dark stone fruit underneath, a little brown sugar, a little chocolate. The nose is perhaps the finest aspect of this brew.
Attack: Follows the nose quite closely, actually, without the alcohol being too overwhelming. The dark roast of the foundational brown ale is not quite as deep/full as I might have expected, though, in an American brown.
Finish: Some of the bitterness from the dark roast comes through to balance the attack.
Mouthfeel: Medium, adequate carbonation.
Overall: While the depth of dark malt flavor is a bit lacking, this ale is eminently drinkable (and because of that the nearly 12% ABV could really sneak up on you!). Of the several beers I’ve tried at/from this brewery, this one is so far my favorite.
