A meticulously crafted Imperial Stout that has been aged for 24 months in a select blend of Buffalo Trace and Templeton barrels. This extensive aging imbues the beer with a rich complexity, marrying notes of bourbon, oak, and a subtle hint of smoke. Post-aging, the stout was conditioned on cocoa nibs and a mix of wild Thai and East Asian Cavendish bananas. This careful process introduces deep flavors of baker’s chocolate and genuine banana notes, steering clear of any artificial laughable taffy flavors, and instead offering a true banana essence. A masterful blend of richness and nuanced flavors, culminating in a smooth sweetness at the finish, complemented by a warming alcohol touch at 16.7% alcohol by volume (confirmed by external lab testing).
