In their words
The twenty-third rendition of Motor Oil, built from a blend of fresh and barrel aged Imperial Stouts with toffee, cacao nibs, vanilla beans and almonds. Subtle char, dark fruit and spice give way to almond slivers soaked in vanilla, buttery caramelized sugar and layers of dark chocolate. First Motor Oil release since February.
