About This Beer

The Westbrook crew started with a roasty base and kept it secret, kept it safe in Prichard’s Double Chocolate Bourbon barrels for three full years! Then they wove in marshmallows, graham crackers, cacao nibs, and cinnamon for a carefully crafted concoction finer than mithril. The end result brims with s’mores flavors rich enough for the courts of Rivendell but cozy enough for a hobbit hole. Even Gandalf would find himself tempted by this treasure!

Tasting Notes

Creamy cascades of dark chocolate, gooey mallow, and whiskey caramel course through every thick quaff. Swirls of baking spice and vanilla oak shimmer throughout like the Evening Star. It’s like a sumptuous mocha kissed with gingerbread and hiding a bold 11% ABV — like an unassuming halfling concealing the Ring of Power.
