Beer Profile
Ancient Artifacts
Ancient Artifacts is a barrel-aged imperial stout with an ABV of 15.6%, matured for 38 months in barrels formerly used for Balcones Rye Whiskey. This stout reveals rich layers of toffee sweetness intertwined with nutty hazelnut undertones and a subtle warmth from cassia bark. The deep, dark appearance accompanies a complex aroma where roasted malt melds with whiskey-aged oak and spiced cinnamon notes. Full-bodied and velvety, it offers a dense mouthfeel with lingering flavors of caramel, nuts, and a gentle spice finish, showcasing a carefully crafted balance between robust stout character and nuanced barrel influence.
