About This Beer

Cycle’s Rare DOS series is some of their most beloved stuff. And this one year variant of Rare DOS is the one that put them on the map! It’s big, dark, and handsome as heck in that 22 oz. bomber, loaded to the brim with characteristics from its year long stay in sumptuous bourbon barrels!

Tasting Notes

A silky, near-still pour unlocks opulent aromas of chocolate, leather, and espresso. Afterward, a wave of baker’s chocolate, caramel, oak, and vanilla notes come wrapped in a belly warming finish.

Well, this sure is a well-aged whiskey-barrel stout. If you wanna know what it tastes like, well, it tastes JUST LIKE THAT. Whiskey. Barrel-aged. Stout.

Nice bourbon and chocolate blend. Coffee comes through later and settles it all down.

Rare dos is always a treat and this was no exception. Really enjoyed it.

It was okay. It sat next to some other stouts that were much better and more robust in flavor. For being a non-adjunct or adjunct free beer I expected barrel. I got a some with more just stone fruit/raisins after the soy sauce/teriyaki greeting is able to be overlooked.
