BARREL-AGED IMPERIAL PORTER RELEASE
For this year’s release, Tennessee Brew Works aged the Vintage 2021 Imperial Porter in George Dickel Single Barrel 15 Year Old Tennessee Whisky Barrels. Here are the details:

Vintage 2021 Barrel-Aged Imperial Porter, ABV 9%, IBU 40
Layers of dark and bitter chocolate, roasted coffee and faint cinnamon eloquently combine with light oak and smoky notes from the whisky barrel.

GEORGE DICKEL Single Barrel 15 Year Old: With a mash bill of 84% corn, 8% rye and 8% malted barley, George Dickel Tennessee Single Barrel 15 Year Old spent at least 15 years in new, charred American oak. A single barrel offering, each barrel left its own unique mark on this spirit. Distilled and charcoal mellowed at the Cascade Hollow Distilling Co., it’s bottled by hand with little water added. You can expect notes of vanilla and toffee as well as rich leather, saddle oil and wood, but also more delicate aromas of fruit and notes of lavender. Due to many years spent in new American oak, the hue is beautiful dark, rich leather brown.

RECOMMENDED PAIRINGS:
Pairs beautifully with roasted duck, wild game, smoked meats, aged firm cheeses, and, for dessert, apple pie.

Whisky enthusiasts might also recognize how well the George Dickel Bottled in Bond Whisky pairs with these foods too.

AVAILABLE STARTING BLACK FRIDAY, Nov 25th, 11AM AT THE TAPROOM.
