Hardywood Barrel Series Bourbon Gingerbread Stout Available Now

Here’s an interesting new brew available now for the first time from Hardywood Brewing:

Beer style:

Gingerbread Stout Aged in Virginia Bourbon Barrels

Hardywood Gingerbread Stout, described by BeerAdvocate as “freagin’ Christmas in a bottle,” is an imperial milk stout brewed with vanilla beans, cinnamon, fresh Casselmonte Farm baby ginger and Bearer Farms wildflower honey. Gingerbread Stout is then matured in Virginia bourbon barrels, where it adapts an incredibly mellow character with oak, caramel and bourbon undertones, and emerges 12 weeks later as Bourbon GBS. A festive blend of spice character laces this rich, chocolatey stout, which warms the palate and the soul.

Best with:

Dark chocolate desserts, spiced holiday pies, deep introspection, and good will towards others.
