About This Beer

If you have a toddler, this beer could be their 21st birthday present. Seriously — River North designed Vicennial: Barrel-Aged Shadowman to age for up to two FULL decades.

In all honesty, I’d have to bury my bottle in my backyard to even have a chance of keeping my paws off this 16.9% ABV monster for that long.

But the reality is, this edition — aged in 4x World Whiskies Award-winning Breckenridge Bourbon Barrels — will only get smoother and more nuanced with time. Which is a hard concept to grasp, considering it’s already incredibly delicious as is!



Tasting Notes

Shadowman’s oil-black pour enrobes the palate with avalanches of rich dark chocolate, mole spice, traces of caramel, and a hint of tobacco char. The finish reverberates with echoes of silky smooth cocoa and maple syrup, lingering long after the sip.

Wow. Just wow. Super deep and rich, nice and thick. Super boozy at 16.9%, so be careful with this one!

High Al BA Stout with the touch that it can be aged for 20 years. The frequency seems to be 16.9%, but I don't feel any alcoholic feeling except for the heat of my throat. Good fragrance like dark chocolate. It's a bit astringent, but it's not bad. Don't drink it with a smooth liquid quality. Maybe I like it quite a lot.

Loads of barrel char and sugars. Good kick from the high ABV. Finish is a longer bomb, goes for dayz

Really good. Super complex. Caramel notes on the back end. The char is there too, although it fades as it warms. Excellent stout.
