Odell Barreled Treasure Imperial Stout. Barrel aged with Cold Brew Coffee.
11 % ABV. Odell Brewing, Fort Collins, CO.
Solid blackness, utterly opaque, slim brown ring of foam above.
In the nose: Caramel, toffee, cocoa, coffee, all wrapped up in charcoal, oak, smoke, tobacco.
In the mouth: Chocolate hits the lips first, followed by whiskey and rum, and coffee comes right along. Big flavors in this one, lasting long on the palate. Thick, rich, scrumptious. Big barrel flavors, intensely expressive. Molasses, brown sugar, dark rum, espresso, so very many delights unfold from here. Full bodied, long malty finish.
Odell has some of the most overblown copy in the world of beer. Here's more of it: A reward of hidden bliss awaits the intrepid explorer whose liquid journey brings them to Barreled Treasure. An imperial stout aged in both bourbon and rum barrels and awakened with a hefty dose of coffee, Barreled Treasure has a luscious, complex profile packed with aromas and flavors of rich espresso, blackstrap molasses and baker’s chocolate. Your riches await!
