Imperial Eclipse Stout Elijah Craig Barrel Aged (Purple)


Imperial Eclipse Stout - Elijah Craig (Purple Wax)
FiftyFifty Brewing Co.
Truckee, California
9.50% ABV
Style: Imperial Stout

C: How Clear is Black?
H: Deep Black
N: Chocolate, Bourbon, & hints of Vanilla

The Ferm: WOW, A Perfect Barrel Aged Beer? Maybe not perfect, but this is DAMN CLOSE.
Tons of chocolate with hints of bourbon all though the taste. The mouth feel is fantastic, even with little-to-no carbonation. I would like just a hint of more body, but honestly this is one of the best barrel aged beers I have ever had.
If you have the opportunity to try it, DO IT! Big thanks to JahLove for hooking me up with a taste of this!

Score: 4.90068
