Black Note Bourbon Barrel Aged Stout


Label approval just dropped for one of the most coveted beers around, Bell's Black Note Bourbon Barrel Aged Stout (11.5%). My guess is that this will likely only be available at their general store with a 2 bottle limit per customer, as was the case with other 750ml bottles.

From the Bell's website...

One of the most sought-after stouts in Bell's history, Black Note Stout blend the complex aromatics of Expedition Stout with the velvety smooth texture of Double Cream Stout and ages the combination in freshly retired oak bourbon barrels for months. The resulting harmony of flavors captures the finest features of all three components: malty notes of dark chocolate, espresso & dried fruits, all buoyed by the warmth and fragrance of the bourbon barrel. Aimed squarely at the stout and bourbon aficionados, Black Note makes a grand statement about the art of the dark.
