Empyrean Brewing Barrel Aged Porter

Had one of these at Yia-Yia's. It's got everything the regular Dark Side Vanilla Porter has, with a nice addition of high-alcohol heat & smoothness. They are not really clear what kind of barrel this was aged in, but it tastes like some kind of wine. I'll have to ask Jim or Rich the next time I'm down there. The vanilla isn't very evident at first, but becomes more pronounced as it heats up. Not for novies.
