As you may have seen, this year we are doing not one, but Two Twelve Gauge Barrel Aged Imperial Stout variants. We are excited to bring back Mexican Chocolate and introduce for the first time, Salted Caramel. Of course, we will be releasing our regular 2017 Twelve Gauge Barrel Aged Imperial Stout as well, all available for the first time on tap and in twenty-two ounce bottles at Black Friday on November 24th.

An incredible twist to our annual release, Twelve Gauge. This variant gets the same barrel treatment, aging inside bourbon staves for a twelve month slumber where it acquires flavors of vanilla, oak and hints of whiskey to complement the chocolate and toffee notes. The addition of cocao nibs, chili and cinnamon give it a subtle and intriguing profile of Mexican Chocolate with a sweet base balanced by mild spice and heat.
ABV: 10% // IBU: 23
Hops: Bravo // Malts: Black Barley, Chocolate, Crystal, Flaked Barley, Munich, Pale, Roasted Barley // Other: Cocao Nibs, Chili, Cinnamon
Every year we brew one of our favorite beers, a big and dark stout known as Twelve Gauge. Most of the brew gets put in to kegs, but a portion ages in bourbon barrels for a twelve month slumber where it acquires flavors of vanilla, oak and hints of whiskey to complement the chocolate and toffee notes. We carefully bottle, wax dip and stamp each bottle and release it at our annual Black Friday event, a festival of imperial stouts and porters at our brewery.

A NEW twist to our annual release, Twelve Gauge. This variant gets the same barrel treatment, aging inside bourbon staves for a twelve month slumber where it acquires flavors of vanilla, oak and hints of whiskey to complement the chocolate and toffee notes. The addition of sea salt accentuates the sweetness of the malt and caramel gives it luscious and tantalizing flavors. Great depth of flavor with a lingering, smooth caramel finish.
