Nerdsense Drinks & No Hype Beer Reviews – #415 Hill Farmstead Damon (2018)

Style: Barrel Aged Russian Imperial Stouts
Container: 500ml
Glassware: Sample Glasses
Notes: Aged in Blanton’s bourbon barrels. (10.5%)

Damon (1993-2004) The time spent with loved ones, now lost, seems to affect our mind and body perpetually: memories happen upon us, unsuspectingly, and bring about tears of fond remembrance. Damon was our brother – devout and patient in an age of busyness and distraction. In his honor, we crafted and conditioned this Imperial Stout in bourbon barrels from our favorite distillery. We still reflect, daily, upon our Damon and his scruffy chin of grey – of his loyalty and his love.

Notes: Out of the bottle, this beer pours a deep jet black color with slight haze. Aromas of Moka pot brewed espresso swirl to the nose underpinned by savory notes of dried fig and date. Crunchy almond biscotti lead on the palate with joined by highlights of shaved dark chocolate, vanilla torrone, and robust but smooth ristretto. (12.7%)

Nerdsense Drinks Reviews – #386 Trillium Permutation 109

Style: Imperial Stout
Container: 750ml
Glassware: Teku’s
Notes: Permutation 109 draws inspiration from two of our favorite inductions in the series so far: Numbers 52 and 57. Like those batches, for this special beer we took an imperial stout aged just over two years in bourbon oak barrels and blended it with a fresh stout brewed in stainless fermenters. Next, we added coconut, almond, vanilla bean, and our Trillium blend cold brew to amplify the palate with bold depth and decadent flavor. (12.4%)
