About This Beer

The team at Revolution crafted this menace of a brew with planet-destroying proportions of specialty malts and flaked and malted oats. Then, they let it age and darken — like a youngling to a Sith Lord — in American oak barrels.

Tasting Notes

The barrel-aged Stout’s chocolatey profile is rich with deep flavors of coconut, caramel, and vanilla.

Chocolate, vanilla, and hints of oak. Good body and mellow for 14%. Pretty decent BA stout!

Lots of coffee and kind of boozy. The chocolate still comes through.

Perfection in it’s simplicity. The touch of anise on the end actually complements the other flavors.

This is in the top several stouts I've ever had!! & it wasn't ruined with coffee! If anything, it is a hair on the boozy end. You can taste coconut, oatmeal, Caramel, chocolate, bourbon, oak. It's creamy, thick, dark and amazing! I only got 1 can bc of the price, but wish I had more.

Best base BA stout out of Chicago - better than that more famous brewery with a bird in it’s name. Leather, chocolate, tobacco, and a subtle hint of coffee. A little alcohol heat at the finish, but still goes down smooth. Well balanced.

This is one of the booziest brews I’ve had in a long, long while. And that’s a very good thing.

so boozy, but it’s a good coffee stout that needs a little more seeetness

Exactly what I look for in a stout. Deep and rich, chocolatey and syrupy in taste. That bourbon barrel aged sharpness elevates the brew to perfection.
