Mezcal and bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout with cocoa nibs, sea salt, and Mezcal barrel-aged Mexican vanilla bean

For every moment occurs whether you experience it or not. The clocks ticks without your permission. To embrace the myriad impulses. To believe in the occurrence of great spectacles. That is to be alive. A fragment of time that will pass before us in this AnnoXI. The product of many hours of sampling strong ales from our wood cellar, this excitedly curious pairing of Mezcal barrel fruit and smoke paired some incredibly well with our dark fruit and caramel Woodford Reserve barrel-aged stout that we married the two together with French Broad cocoa nibs, Mezcal barrel-aged Mexican vanilla bean and a dash of sea salt. An incredibly diverse range of Mexican spiced hot cocoa, sweet citrus chocolate cake, Bourbon vanilla frappuccino and dark chocolate-dipped black cherries.

S - Aroma is vanilla, dark chocolate, caramel and mezcal.

T - The taste is dark chocolate, vanilla, caramel, smokey mezcal and a nice alcohol warmth.
