A truly warming blend of barrel aged Imperial Porter. Devil’s Claw is the latest mash up of barrel aged beers packaged under the Cactus Catalog series. This time we carefully selected six separate barrels of Who Hit John, all aged nearly a year, and blended into something transcendental. Woodford Reserve Double Oak, Buffalo Trace (this one had over a pound of vanilla beans per Buffalo Trace barrel), and some very eccentric Rum barrels which previously held whiskey were all the vessels in which this blend was respectively aged in. 33% Woodford double oak, 33% rum, 33% Buffalo Trace. All aged nearly a year and blended into something transcendental. Rich chocolate/toffee up front with a deep marshmallow finish. Coconut & molasses like qualities chime in around the finish reminding you that there is definitely some rum presence in this beer.
