Town Hall Barrel Aged Imperial Stout

Brewed by Minneapolis Town Hall Brewery
Style: Imperial Stout
Minneapolis, Minnesota USA

Wintefest 2008. Dark brown color with faint head. Broubon and oak characteristics (vanilla, etc) with some chocolate hints. A very nice beer.

On draught during the Winterfest 2008 in downtown St. Paul, Minnesota. Pours an opaque dark brown brew with a fast dissolving tan head that dissipates clean. Aroma of roasted dark malt, some coconut, bourbon and a touch of coffee. Taste is medium to full bodied, hardly no carbonation with flavors of roasted dark malt, strong bourbon, vanilla and dark chocolate. Finish has a high alcohol warmth with some coffee and bourbon flavors.

Another RIS farily heavy on the bourban, but nothing like the Fitgers one. Rich and smooth going down indeed, with a good hop presence as well. Good amount of coffee on the pallate as well. Good times.

Winterfest 2008
Heavy bourbon flavor. However, better than the Edmund Fitzgerald BB Stout I had from Fitgers earlier in the night. You can at least taste some of the other flavors such as dark chocolate, vanilla, roast, and cola. Still a little too bourbon dominated for me to rate this really high on the scale.
