Description

Brewed and housed in bourbon barrels since last January 2014. The flavor is intense- anise, molasses, and spicy phenolics come to mind. The barrel character is subtle but overall this beer wears its alcohol on its sleeve; sit down with a bottle or else bring a tripod. We've initially baptized this beer 'Akademik,' drawing on the Akademik Shokalski Russian research vessel that was stuck in Antarctic ice last January for over a month (our fermentation exhibited similar characteristics). We rescued the stuck fermentation with a strong yeast strain whereby the 2 strains melded into a wonderful experiment.
