Stone Brewing Co’s Southern Charred is making a return soon. Charred is Stone’s Double Bastard (a strong ale) that spent 5 months in first use Kentucky bourbon barrels. That’s less time than the first release that was a blend of beer aged 13months, and 10 months in barrels.
The dark amber ale was brewed with a huge malt bill and a belligerent amount of hops making it a heavy, bitter beast of a beer.
Southern Charred joins the Bastard Box Set, Arrogant Bastard, Double Bastard and Lukcy Basartd in recent releases.
