Lizard of Koz (2016)

Stout - Imperial / Double

This one is near and dear to our hearts. Brewmaster Jeremy Kosmicki wanted to make the birthday of his little sister, Liz, a special one. So he did what he does best and brewed a stout using a few of her favorite ingredients: fresh Michigan blueberries, rich chocolate and vanilla aged in bourbon barrels to round out those beautiful flavors. Liz was floored and we think you will be too.

~7-8yr o. Aged incredibly well. Plenty of sweet, jammy blueberry. Still hints of bourbon fire on the finish. Body has thinned. Still good.

Pretty sure tonite’s #cellarpurge2022 is from 2016. Gorgeous blend of cocoa, vanilla, blueberries, & hints of coffee & bourbon.

Ягодная кислинка вышла на передний план. Конечно это уже не то пиво из 2016, но сохранилось как могло:) Эх повторили бы варку.
