Black Barrel Series: RITUAL - 12.0% ABV Ritual is a potent, jet-black imperial stout, that has spent many months patiently slumbering in bourbon barrels. This fearsome liquid entity carves a path through the olfactory senses with devastatingly powerful notes of vanilla, cacao, caramel and espresso. These flavors come strictly from the malt grist of the beer and the residual spirit leached from the wood of the barrels. No fancy adjuncts required. Pure, unadulterated, sinfully-delicious darkness.
