Cognac Double Barrel-Aged Driftwood (2023)
Barrel-Aged Imperial Brown Ale
14.1% ABV
Double Barrel-Aged Cognac Driftwood was brewed with British Golden Promise and a blend of chocolate, coffee and dark roasted malts. To further develop flavor we added Vermont Maple Syrup and Molasses to the kettle. Following a slow fermentation, this full bodies Brown Ale was racked to a single Buffalo Trace Blanton's Bourbon barrel. After two years of aging it was sent to a single Cognac cask to finish.
Double Barrel-Aged Cognac Driftwood pours a dark mahogany brown with notes of chocolate, red fruit and toasted walnut, along with the complexity of maple syrup and crème brûlée.
