The late, great actor Bob McDuff Wilson once sent us a personalized inspirational message. In the message, he used a turn of phrase we had never heard before (nor can we find any record of ever being used)—but once we heard it, we knew we needed to make a beer in tribute: RUN OUT THE BUFFALOES.

So, a little over a year ago we took a stout blend that excited us and then selected a Buffalo Trace bourbon barrel to house it. The aging added wonderful layers of chocolate, spirit, oak and char to the base, resulting in a clean—yet nuanced—full-bodied sipper that didn’t need anything else. We hope you enjoy it.

A - Pours pitch black with a a very thin tan head. Light amount soapy lacing.

S - Aroma is dark chocolate, vanilla, coffee and heavy barrel.

T - The taste is dark chocolate, caramel, vanilla, coffee, oak and some light bourbon heat.

M - Full body with low carbonation. Syrupy mouthfeel with a slick dry finish.

O - Really tasty. Really nice balance of barrel and the base stout.
