We took our Apple Brandy Finished Bourbon Barrel Dire Wolf and added a new spice profile for your enjoyment. One year in the barrel and then conditioned with Vietnamese cinnamon and Madagascar vanilla bean. This deliciously rich variant was designed to compliment the barrel characteristics, not overwhelm them. Cheers!

22 ounce bottle, packaged on 09/23/21. Served in a snifter, the beer pours dark brown/black with about an inch tan head that stayed around for a while. Good amount of lacing, too. I like the aroma, the brew smells like apple brandy, cinnamon, vanilla, roasted malt, bourbon, dark fruit, molasses and dark chocolate. I think the taste is similar to the aroma, but with the addition of some burnt/charred malt and coffee flavors. Seems like all the flavors mesh well together with no one flavor overpowering the others. Good amount of sweet and roastiness here! Mouthfeel/body is medium/full, it's coating and a bit creamy with a moderate amount of carbonation. I thought this was a good overall brew, worth picking up if you come across some!
