Empyrean Carpe Brewem Nibbed in the Barrel Oatmeal Stout
This is a limited edition ale by Empyrean Brewing. We got a taste of it at last month's beer tour. They took their Collapsar Oatmeal Stout, aged it in some oak barrels that previously been the nursery for some bourbon and tossed in some cacao nibs for good measure. Yes, it's as good as it sounds. You can really taste the bourbon, not the oak so much, but a little bit. On top of it all there's the deliciousness of their oatmeal stout. As I'm fond of saying, a nice dark beer for the dark nights ahead.
