Today we get our first peek at Bell’s Brewery Black Note 2017. This beer is a stout aged in freshly “retired” oak Bourbon barrels and for 2017 it will hit 11.2%-AbV. This is the 12oz bottle and the beer will also be packaged in kegs. Stay tuned for release details and here is the commercial description from Bell’s Brewery:
One of the most sought-after stouts in Bell's history, Black Note Stout blends the complex aromatics of Expedition Stout with the velvety smooth texture of Double Cream Stout, each aged 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 and 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.
