  • This is some pretty special stuff. I've long been a fan of Stranahan's releases and their limited expressions, so seeing a cask strength single barrel come out is exciting. Tasting it is even more so - this is a killer release and marks an exciting new chapter for Stranahans.

  • Nose:

    Big nose, full of malt, barrel char, honey, cola and this lovely dark chocolate note. Sweet and pleasant, rich and enticing with quite a bit going on.

  • Taste:

    Rich honey and toffee, rich cherry cola and a sweet root beer character. Rich mouthfeel, great viscosity, bit of dark chocolate, pepper and espresso.

  • Finish:

    Long finish, decadent and layered with tons going on. The espresso, cherry and cola continue with a really unique finish that hangs great.

  • Overall:

    This is some pretty special stuff. I've long been a fan of Stranahan's releases and their limited expressions, so seeing a cask strength single barrel come out is exciting. Tasting it is even more so - this is a killer release and marks an exciting new chapter for Stranahans.
