Small Batch Series No. 4 is our most exciting small batch release to date, and one that utilizes both aspects of our unique “brewstillery”. This beer takes our Mesquite Smoked Porter brewed to 10% ABV and ages it for 10 months in our own Texas bourbon barrels! Small Batch Series No. 4 carries a sumptuous nose of sweet oak, mesquite smoke, dark chocolate, toasted marshmallow and vanilla, along with flavors of dark bittersweet cocoa laced with sea salt, smoke, vanilla, and caramel. While this warming winter release is heavenly to sip now, it will age and mellow nicely for up to 10 years if stored carefully.

    bottled late 2012. has some unexpected wildnes to it, apart from the smoke. tasted more wine barreled than bourbon. A weird but enjoyable brew. Didn't taste the 10% AT ALL...but also couldn't tell this was once an imperial porter. Malty, but more smoked wild ale than anything else. The barrels did some weird stuff here...

    Aromas of leather, wood, smoke, and a touch of peat, interesting...Thick black body almost coats the glass, no head or lace at all. moutheel is thick, heavy, viscous.. flavors are many, a bit muddled. Toasted marshmallows, check, also some chocolate, smoke, leather, all blend to a 'unique' flavor. Overall i am torn, i like some of the attributes, but it seems, well its hard to place. i like it yet.....
