Oliphant Practitioner of Duck Arts Bourbon Barrel-aged Imperial Stout. 9 and 18 month barrel blend.
13.5 % ABV. Oliphant Brewing, Somerset, Wisconsin.
Black as the darkest night, fully opaque, tight tan head.
In the nose: dark and rich, molasses and char, cocoa and hints of cherry. Beastly bourbon barrel business.
In the mouth: more chocolate, more thick, more viscous. Plenty of bourbon on the palate. Just sweet enough, and plenty boozy. Well-balanced and over-the-top at once. This one’s got the goods, sure way to send me off to slumber. A right good nightcap.
This one is the real deal. I’m going back for more.
