After receiving some freshly emptied bourbon barrels direct from Balcones Distillery in Texas we were itching to brew something big, dark and ridiculous. The obvious answer was to give our friend Henok from Omnipollo a ring and ask if he fancied helping us conjure something up. After almost 2 years of aging we decided it was time to take out the beer and lightly enhance it with coconut, hazelnut and vanilla so as to not get too much in the way of the barrel character.

44 cl can poured into a Teku glass, in Toulouse, FR. This is a collab with Sweden’s Omnipollo Brewery, can art by renowned Swedish artist Neale Payling. 15% abv.
A short single finger of foam gets coaxed up by an aggressive pour. Deep deep black brew.
Nose is whiskey soaked lava cake, port wine, prunes, vanilla.
Taste charges in with the beautiful base Stout that thoroughly absorbed 2 years of Texas bourbon barrel and a slam of warmth. Finished gently with adjuncts of coconut, hazelnut and vanilla add only complimentary flavors - present, but not overwhelming. It’s a nice marraige. Each sip is a superpowered explosion, intense, sweet, mighty, and full On.
Mouth is dense and thick. Low carbonation.
Overall, a slow sipper sensory overload of brewing craftmanship, expert barreling, and instant buzz.
Ingredients: Golden Promise, Roasted Barley, Carafa Special 1, chocolate malt, pale chocolate malt, brown malt, coconut, hazelnut, vanilla, oats, hops, yeast, water. Unfiltered, unpasteurized.
