It's finally SPRING enough to drink outside in comfort! So I cracked open this barrel aged Stout I've been cellaring for a year(ish) ALSO worst pic ever lol! Great Lakes Brewery BOURBON BARREL-AGED IMPERIAL SOLSTICE STOUT BOURBON BARREL-AGED IMPERIAL SOLSTICE STOUT ABV: 11.9% 
Style: Bourbon Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout 
IBUs: 60 Brewed on the first day of spring. Put into barrels on the summer solstice. Bottled on the winter solstice…. Pours midnight black with a tight (and we mean tight) mocha tan head. Menacing indeed. Aromas of charcoal, vanilla, treacle, espresso and alcohol leap from the glass with each gentle swirl. The first drink offers a reminder of the girth of this beer, as notes of bourbon, chocolate, molasses and fig pack a wallop. Each subsequent sip leads to newfound discoveries of vanilla and coffee, wood and anise. Velvety smooth yet noticeable boozy, this full-bodied stout packs a delicate balance between sweetness, bitterness and barrel. Well rounded, complex and dangerous. Best enjoyed with friends and enemies alike.
