Our robust Eugene Porter aged in Woodford Reserve barrels for six months with boysenberry purée. Really nice, dark fruit flavors come through.

Appears pitch black with razor thin collar. Nose is bourbon forward with nice accents of oak and vanilla. Boysenberry comes through and brings on some jammy notes. This pairs with some dark chocolate. Taste is smooth with slight acidity from the fruit. The bourbon smooths everything out. This beer feels bigger than mean gene, perhaps it's just batch variation. Low carbonation. Definitely tasty!
