Hill Farmstead Damon

Damon (1993-2004) The time spent with loved ones, now lost, seems to affect our mind and body perpetually: memories happen upon us, unsuspectingly, and bring about tears of fond remembrance. Damon was our brother – devout and patient in an age of busyness and distraction. In his honor, we crafted and conditioned this Imperial Stout in bourbon barrels from our favorite distillery. We still reflect, daily, upon our Damon and his scruffy chin of grey – of his loyalty and his love. 27º Plato 10.5% abv

Hill Farmstead Brewery- Hill Farmstead Damon – 750 ml. bottle poured into a goblet. 10.5% abv. Thanks Joey

Appearance: Pours a dark brown with some bubbly tan edges.

Aroma:  Dark chocolate, cake batter, whiskey.

Taste:  Smokey malt, dark chocolate, light burnt roast dark fruit.

Mouthfeel: Full bodied soft carbonation.

Overall: A very balanced, cohesive bourbon barrel aged impy. While I love the big monster, messy bourbon barrel aged stouts, this one was enjoyable, with more than just in your face bourbon, chocolate and caramel.
