AleSmith - Barrel-Aged Speedway Stout Now 13%-AbV

AleSmith - Barrel-Aged Speedway StoutThis is the latest packaging for Barrel-Aged Speedway Stout from AleSmith Brewing in San Diego, CA.  This Russian imperial stout is brewed with roasted barley & locally-sourced artisanal coffee, and then aged in Bourbon barrels  before being package din 750ml bottles.  This beer races in at 13%-AbV (previous versions were 12%) and here’s the commercial description from AleSmith:

We’ve matured our Russian Imperial Stout in premium bourbon barrels for up to one year to create Barrel-Aged Speedway Stout, with the perfect blend of flavors. Notes of oak, vanilla, and bourbon add another level of complexity to this beer’s already massive flavor profile of chocolate, Ryan Bros. Coffee, and roasted barley. Designed to be enjoyed now or aged in the bottle for years to come, this special release is truly a unique beer that is smooth as it is rare.
