Bourbon Barrel Dark Star

Fremont Brewing · Imperial Stout · 12.4% ABV

Bourbon Barrel Dark Star by Fremont Brewing is an Imperial Oatmeal Stout aged in Kentucky bourbon barrels. The brewing process involves blending 24, 18, 12, and 8-month barrel-aged versions of their Dark Star stout to achieve a deeply complex profile. It is brewed with 2-Row Pale, Roast Barley, Crystal-60, Chocolate, and Carafa-2 malts, along with rolled oats, and hopped with Columbus, Willamette, and Cascade. The resulting beer features a dense, silky mouthfeel with aromas of chocolate, toffee, cola, dried fig, and soft barrel vanilla. On the palate, it delivers rich dark malts, roasted coffee, and subtle licorice, which are balanced by oak, leather, and a warming whiskey character from the extensive barrel aging.
