Toppling Goliath Brewing Co.'s Barrel-Aged Stout. Label approved 29 October 2026; not spotted yet.
Lighter than 98% of the 651 Barrel-Aged Stout labels we've read.
From the label“Silky, dark and deceptively drinkable. Eighty-twenty blends 80% smooth Irish stout with 20% barrel-aged imperial stout, creating a layered expression of dark chocolate, roasted coffee and toasted malt wrapped in subtle notes of vanilla, and charred oak. Creamy on the palate with just enough barrel richness to add depth without weighing it down, it finishes smooth, balanced and inviting at 6% ABV.”
