About This Beer
4 Hands began with their smooth Imperial Milk Stout base. Then they aged it in barrels that previously held Withered Oak Amburana 7 Year Rye Whiskey and infused it with Madagascar vanilla beans.
Tasting Notes
Each pour smells like a mug of hot cocoa topped by a dollop of marshmallow fluff. The medium-bodied sip offers the sweet chocolate and vanilla flavors you expect, plus waves of dark fruit and caramel. Blackberry jam undertones shift toward maple, bitter baking chocolate, and a whisper of floral rose, before the beautiful amburana finish.

Smells like maple and chocolate syrup and goes down smooth with hints of oak, finishes with a mix of vanilla, chocolate, and warm spices.

Amburana provides great spice notes. Barrel-aging and vanilla are featured and fit well with the stout base.
