The taste is rich and chocolatey with flavors of chocolate milk, cordial cherries, oak, caramel, and smoke on a smooth and full body. The finish is long and moderately bitter, featuring notes of charred oak, dark chocolate, espresso, herbal hops, vanilla, and forest floor. Overall, this is blissfully good. I chose this vintage to age because it already stood out among recent years, and admittedly it had already aged 3 years in the bottle at that point, but I do feel it has improved since then. It&#8217;s just so smooth and mellowed yet still bold and has developed some completely new flavors along the way, truly a rewarding experience and I look forward to exploring more aging projects.<\/p>\n<p>Bottled on: 10\/20\/17<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4750,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","embm_styles":[240],"embm_groups":[],"embm_menus":[],"class_list":["post-4748","embm_beer","type-embm_beer","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","embm_style-stout-barrel-aged-imperial-double"],"embm_profile":{"malts":"Two-Row, Black, Caramel, Chocolate, Munich 10 and Roasted Barley","hops":"Millennium","additions":"Aged an Unknown Amount of Time in Heaven Hill Bourbon Barrels, Aged an Additional 5 Years in Bottle","yeast":"Ale","abv":14.7,"ibu":60},"embm_extras":{"availability":"","notes":"","beer_number":null},"embm_untappd":{"id":2321347},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_beers\/4748","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_beers"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/embm_beer"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4748"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_beers\/4748\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4751,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_beers\/4748\/revisions\/4751"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4750"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4748"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"embm_style","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_styles?post=4748"},{"taxonomy":"embm_group","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_groups?post=4748"},{"taxonomy":"embm_menu","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.davedrinksbeer.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/embm_menus?post=4748"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
