Glory is impermanent. We age, we wither, we perish. And our death bed is adorned in a glimpse of our finest impressions. We welcomed our taproom at Forestry Camp with Virtue's inaugural vintage in 2019. Here is our eighth chapter. This blend was once again championed by our barrelmaster, Chris Golden, who dug out his very best picks for this year's cuvée. Just like last year, our 2026 vintage is comprised of fresh Willet barrels. Warm up with a bevy of caramel, toasted marshmallow, dark chocolate and tahitian vanilla on the aroma, leading into flavors of orange toffee, toasted brown sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla, and mission fig.

Many thx to CarolinaCardinals for this bottle!
A - Dark, dark caramel brown color with really dense creamy, bubbly toasted toffee lacing with nice legs on the sides of the glass
S - Big toasted caramel, some vanilla (with almost a coconut quality aroma), and toasted brown sugar.
T - Toasted caramel, toasted toffee, vanilla, toasted brown sugar, and very light Bourbon that blends perfectly without detracting from the flavor. Ends on the sweeter, boozier side.
M - Big silky, viscous body that ends wet, warms the back of the throat, and leaves a light sugary residue on the lips.
O - This is absolutely fantastic and highly recommended.
