Rum Barrel-Aged Irish-Style Stout

Our sixth and final release of 2023 is a beer that started as Dubliners, our Irish Export Stout brewed in celebration of St. Patrick’s Day. With its robust and dark profile, the original beer showcased bold roasted grain bitterness and notes of black coffee, burnt toast, and unsweetened chocolate. In February, we diverted some of this rich Stout for aging in two rum barrels gifted to us by our friends at Bully Boy Distillers (Boston, MA). While barrel-aging, the base beer took on balancing notes of molasses, sweet vanilla, and a distinctive rum-like fruity aroma and flavor. A unique departure from the traditional Barrel-Aged Stout, enjoy this boozy holiday sipper that packs a fragrant, flavorful punch.
