From the label“Push past the limits of sense and sensibilities, from the known into the unknown. Fall way off the map and here there be monsters. Our Belgian inspired sour stout, dark as a moonless night and brimming with roasted malt and bitter hops, spent 7 months in Woodford Reserve barrels. There, it transfigured into this special delicacy, boasting notes of bourbon, oak, vanilla, and dark chocolate decadence, sure to keep you in good company in all places- be they of light or of dark.”
