When The Beer Connoisseur named Wild Leap the Brewery of the Year for 2021, Lone Buffalo led that charge with a “world class” 97/100 rating. What makes this luxurious brew stand out? A LOT of love and attention! To quote The Beer Connoisseur, “in order to deliver a quality barrel-aged Imperial Stout, it is paramount to have a superior base beer…undeniably the case here.” Alongside that “superior base,” the Georgia crew hand selected the best Heaven Hill bourbon barrels and let the beer age for over a year. The brewers went so far as to transfer and condition each single barrel in its own fermenter before hand bottling and labeling every one!
