About This Beer
To create this symphony of flavors, the legendary Jester King crew took their beloved OG Black Metal and aged it in Balcones bourbon barrels for a full 9 months. Then, they added a full pound per barrel of Madagascar vanilla beans.
Tasting Notes
Warm bourbon-toffee. Rich dark chocolate. Smooth and creamy ribbons of vanilla. That’s what you have to look forward to in every sip of this BA Imperial Stout. It’s like an artisan soft serve swirl in a bottle with a drizzle of bourbon caramel over the top.

One of the best stouts I’ve ever had; this incredibly balanced, complex beer has bold bourbon, vanilla, caramel, coffee, a touch of baking spices, and a lingering, creamy finish. It smelled exactly like it tasted, had a gorgeous forefront and aftertaste- just perfection
