About This Beer
The Washington Beer Award-winners at Heathen aged their rich and roasty Russian Imperial Stout in freshly emptied bourbon barrels for a luxurious, whiskey-soaked sipper.
Tasting Notes
Pop the top, and faintly floral mocha aromas perfume the air alongside notes of top-shelf bourbon. Hold a silky sip on your tongue, and layers of vanilla whiskey and woody spice accentuate nuances of espresso and chocolate covered raisins until a tannic, oaky finish.

I thought this was a really nice BBA stout. straight forward and true to style with no frills or special adjuncts. Nicely done.

This was a great beer!! You could taste the oakyness and bourbon through the dark roastiness of the stout.

Good stout base and nice balance with the bourbon. No adjuncts in a basic Russian Imperial stout.

Decent bourbon barrel-aged stout. It’s good. Not special, but nothing wrong with it exactly what you’d expect from a BBA stout.
