Evil Twin Bourbon Barrels “Jesus”

Evil Twin Brewing (Denmark/South Carolina) is exalting a beer beyond it’s mortal means. The brewery is talking about Double Barrel Jesus.

A bigger take on Evil Twin Even More Jesus, their small batch imperial stout, Double Barrel Jesus combines a big imperial stout with Muscovado Sugar and bourbon barrels. The result may be biblical indeed.

Few times in the history of craft beer it has happened that a highly praised beer rises beyond mortal stardom into a higher godly league. Usually the recipe to make such heavenly drops is thick fudge-like body, pitch black color, amazingly overwhelming aromas of chocolate, coffee, dark fruits and muscovado sugar, obviously only made in limited amounts and by all means aged in barrels and blended into very unique and rare tasting version standing in front of you.

Look for Evil Twin Double Barrel Jesus in 22oz bottles.

Style: Imperial Stout (w/ Muscovado Sugar, Barrel Aged. Bourbon)
Availability: 22oz Bottles
Arrival: TBA

12% ABV
