This stout has been barrel aged for a year, giving it a deep, complex aroma and flavor. The taste is rich and malty, with notes of roasted coffee, chocolate and dark fruits. The barrel aging gives the beer a subtle vanilla note and a pleasant woodiness. The body is full-bodied and velvety, with a pleasant finish that lingers for a long time. This beer is ideal for enjoying in company or as a special highlight on a special occasion.
