Reserve Imperial Stout - A Blend of Single, Double & Triple Bourbon Barrel-Aged Stouts


ABV: 13.7%
Format: 22oz bottle
First Released: December 2021

BOURBON. FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE TORTE. TOASTED OAK.

Emerging from our cellar, we have Batch 1 of Enchiridion: a blend of single, double, and triple bourbon barrel-aged stouts. This reserve imperial stout was inspired by the process of making Lief, our Méthode Traditionelle - 3 year blend. Similarly, it's a blend of one-, two-, and three-year old beer. The difference is that Enchiridion is racked into a new barrel each year for maximum barrel impact: tannin, bourbon character, and long-term mellowing of the stout. The single barrel was aged in Breckenridge bourbon barrels; the double barrel was aged in Breckenridge, then Blanton's Mash #2; and the triple barrel was aged in Breckenridge, then Weller Full Proof, then 1792. In total, the stout aged in six bourbon barrels! Long-awaited bourbon complexity arises with aromas of crème brûlée, toasted oak, and wildflower honey, while flavors of flourless chocolate torte, fig, vanilla bean and lingering oak tannins delight the palate. Cheers to this silky and decadent celebration of bourbon barrels.
