The Barrel Aged Uncle in American Oak imperial stout features a deep, roasted malt character typical of stouts, enriched with the spicy, slightly earthy tones of rye. Aged for 6 months in American Oak bourbon barrels from Wyoming Whiskey, this beer develops a rich, creamy mouthfeel with enhanced notes of chocolate, coffee, and dark fruits. The higher alcohol content, characteristic of imperial stouts, is well-balanced with its strong flavor profile. The addition of rye provides a unique twist, imparting a pronounced grainy sharpness and a slightly dry finish perception, setting it apart from more traditional imperial stouts.
