A Night To End All Dawns | Vanilla Maple (2020)

Imperial Stout Aged in Bourbon Barrels

12.4% ABV

After spending over a year in bourbon barrels, this variant of A Night To End All Dawns, our massive imperial stout, was conditioned on maple syrup and Madagascar & Mexican vanilla beans.

The heat of the bourbon gave way to subtle caramel sweetness from the oak married with the flavors of oak and vanilla.

Shiro Plum | 2021 Harvest

Spontaneous

Shiro Plum | 2021 Harvest is a blend of traditionally brewed spontaneously fermented beers from two batches from the 2018 brewing season; one batch containing New Jersey blueberry blossom honey, and another aged in a chestnut puncheon. In August of 2021, our team picked up that year's New Jersey Shiro plum harvest. We added them whole, directly through the head of a barrel at a rate of over 8 lbs per gallon along with the blend for refermentation. At the time of bottling, this blend had an average age of 30 months and has been conditioning since its bottling in early 2022. Shiro Plum | 2021 Harvest pours bright yellow with orange highlights and a densely creamy foam with aromatics of plums and apricots. A firm but pleasant acidity supports the nuances of plum skins, pineapple upside-down cake and a touch of fermentation funk.

Blackberry & Blueberry | 2021 Harvest

Spontaneous

At the end of summer, we received that year's New Jersey blueberry harvest and added these directly to stainless. We racked the blackberry spontaneously fermented beer to cold soak on the skins and juices of the blueberries for a short period of time before racking back to oak for refermentation and conditioning. At bottling, this blend had an average age of 27 months and has been conditioning since its bottling in early 2022. Blackberry & Blueberry | 2021 Harvest pours a deep purple color with ruby highlights and a rocky pink foam.
