I've been back in Houston with my son-in-law for a short time and having our second powerful Stout. So many great beers, not enough time. This special edition barrel aged stout is a local small batch brew.
Expected dark brown color, short brown head. Aroma of mild alcohol and stone fruit. Texture has a gentleness, soft and heavy, not creamy. This flavor is anything but complex. Strong dark malt, clean, experienced bourbon barrel alcohol, and in the finish, the dark fruit sends the senses to heaven.
This is an extraordinary beer to showcase how to use bourbon barrels and malt to create a really good beer without all the extra flavors. They took basic ingredients and turned it excellent. Not easy to do.
