A Note on This Beer
This 4.46 UT-rated Imperial Stout is no yolk!
To craft it, the brewers at Turning Point aged their base brew in bourbon barrels that held whiskey for 12 YEARS, then maple syrup for 8 months after that.
Like drizzling a Lazy Susan’s worth of goodies onto a stack of flapjacks and taking a big chomp, each pour delivers a kaleidoscope of opulent flavors with real additions of maple, coffee beans, vanilla, and cacao nibs!
Swaths of heavy maple notes start the sip in rich delight. The sweetness blends with the roasty coffee and malts, as the belly warming 14.5% ABV comes rocking through. The booze gets cut oh-so-smoothly after that with the barrel’s smooth touches as well as vanilla and cacao nibs, all settling on the finish.
Even if you’re not in the corner booth hanging out for a few hours on a weekend morning, your buds will appreciate some Blackout Brunch at the table. Just make sure to save some for yourself — the good stuff tends to go fast.
