Cigar City Hunahpu’s Imperial Stout – Whiskey Barrel Aged

From Cigar City – Hunahpu Imperial Stout aged in a Stranahan’s whiskey barrel.

Cigar City Brewing – Cigar City Hunahpu’s Imperial Stout – Whiskey Barrel Aged – 750 ml. bottle poured into a goblet. 11% abv.

Appearance: Pours dark brown. Looks very thick. Leaves an iodine coating on the glass. No head. Pours like oil.

Aroma: Sweet whiskey, vanilla and booze, dark chocolate. Cinnamon raisin toast.

Taste: Whiskey, dark chocolate covered raisin, spirit soaked wood. Roasty aftertaste.

Mouthfeel: Silky thick , spicy bubbles.

Overall: An amazing tasty treat.  Call me crazy, but while this is at the top of my list of one of my favorite categories of beer, I’d probably take ‘regular old’ Hunahpu over this hard to get beer.
