A Note on This Beer

What do you get when you take a GABF Gold Medal award-winning Stout and age it in whiskey barrels? An incredibly delicious, world-class beer!

Today’s Barrel Aged B.O.R.I.S. Oatmeal Imperial Stout is coming to you from the towering craft giants at Hoppin’ Frog. They’ve been collecting awards both nationally and internationally since their inception in 2006. 

Each velvety sip of this full-bodied brew is laced with notes of rich, dark chocolate, creamy caramel, and freshly roasted coffee, with hints of oaky vanilla and Kentucky bourbon. A whisper of sticky molasses, dark cherries, and ripe, juicy plums tickles your nose as you plunge into this complex 9.4% ABV behemoth. 

Craft fans worldwide can’t get enough of Barrel Aged B.O.R.I.S., calling it “beautiful stuff” and “extremely well-balanced and smooth.” After one taste of this bodacious brew, you’re likely to agree! 

Since Hoppin’ Frog’s sumptuous Stouts are known to leap right off the shelves, we were lucky to get our hands on a few for all you craft connoisseurs. But, you may want to grab some quick, before it hops straight outta sight!

Barrel Aged B.O.R.I.S. won Gold at the World Beer Cup!

This is a well done, but simple, barrel aged stout! It has a good smooth body with a pleasant depth that is similar to a typical oatmeal stout and a very enjoyable dark flavor with a tasty, faintly sweet, mild whisky barrel character to it.

Delicious decadent full bodied stout. The barrel aging added lots of great flavor without adding any unnecessary ABV booziness. Also, great price point for what your getting.

Just enough barrel to make it noticeable, nice oaky tannin and whiskey to complement and cut the sweetness.

Took a few sips to get used to, feels heavier than 9.4% but maybe that's the barrel aging, I'm not usually a fan of barrel aged, and might not have got this one had I noticed, but it was good. As many others have mentioned, a very solid stout.

For the ABV the barrel is quite present in a good way. The beer doesn’t really lack in any aspect, tastes exactly like an imperial oatmeal stout aged in whiskey barrels. Not sweet, nicely bitter and roasted Mouthfeel is smooth and not thin.

Barrel aged boozy oatmeal goodness. This is the first of many left that will be beers of mourning. Tavour can no longer deliver to my address due to the local carrier halting delivery of dank beer to my doorstep. 🍺😢

All of the rich and heavy with a rough punch of bitter that overpowers what should be a fine barrel aged stout.

Really really disappointed. I had high expectations. Flat. Zero head/carbonation. Maybe I got an off bottle? Or maybe having the box sitting at the hot ass local delivery warehouse for a week killed it @tavour

This was very WHISKEY forward. Wish it had been aged in bourbon barrels instead. Bitter, roasty, coffee-ish. Not my cuppa stout.

This is a solid 4 the BBA definitely helped kick it up a bit from the regular Boris but it’s still to thin to her above a 4 and lacks the depth in beers I have rated higher in this category
