This Neat was blended from Cuppa aged in George Dickel 15 year old bourbon barrels for 26 months. A formidable stout brewed to showcase the expression of the barrels used in the aging process. Rich with bakers chocolate, and barrel notes throughout, and big waves of jammy fruit accented with hints of vanilla. For this release, like every other Neat release, no adjuncts were used: this Cuppa is served “neat”.

Had on tap. Pitch black opaque stout pour with a light brown cap. Aromas of big bourbon leading also big but not as quite, chocolate, lightly roasted malt, and earth with char flakes. Taste is very boozy, especially for the series, wet oak, chocolate, and usual stout trappings are there, but they are clearly second seat. The feel is malty, full, heavy and thick, has a slight chew, not as boozy as it smells or tastes but still barrel led
