Description:
When Cigar City’s dark whim, or "capricho oscuro", gets the best of us, we select our favorite barrel-aged beers to blend into a Gordian knot of liquid complexity. Capricho Oscuro #6 is a blend of a bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout, a bourbon barrel-aged Belgian-style dark ale, a brandy barrel-aged double nut brown ale and a bourbon barrel-aged Baltic porter.
TASTING NOTES
An intense nose of candied apple, toffee and tobacco is punctuated with a soft, vinous alcohol aroma. On the palate, molasses, vanilla and raisin character set the stage for a rustic, woody quality from aging in several unique barrels. Soft carbonation and lingering sweetness create a lasting, luscious finish.
