Full Sail Brewing kicks off February with the release of Black Gold, an imperial stout aged in bourbon barrels. Black Gold is part Full Sail’s Brewmaster Reserve Series.
The first of the bottles have been released at the Full Sail Tasting Room in Hood River, Oregon, with more bottles being distributed around the state. If this beer is as good as it sounds, it might not get far out of Oregon.
Commercial Description:
A hearty brew that is black as night with a strong roasted malt character and a full body. After its initial release in January 2010, our Imperial Stout was aged for a full year in Bourbon casks from Kentucky. This extended aging presents hints vanilla and oak. This, combined with the robust character of the Imperial Stout make for a smooth, wonderful taste experience. A hearty cellar beer.
Style: Imperial Stout (Barrel Aged)
Availability: 22oz Bombers. Very limited release.
11.4% ABV
