A Note on This Beer
Gun Hill Brewing’s 5th anniversary party attracted hordes of craft fans from all around the Big Apple to cram shoulder-to-shoulder in the small, industrial taproom. Which is mind boggling because New Yorkers don’t take the hour long subway ride out to the Bronx unless it’s for some truly remarkable beer.
Which is why Gun Hill aged their coveted GABF Gold medal winning Stout for 12-months in Woodford Reserve barrels to make today’s rare 2019 Barrel-Aged Void of Light for the celebration!
With only 360 bottles in existence, devoted fans had no choice but to make the onerous journey out to the taproom for a chance to get a taste.
Luckily you don’t need to worry about packing your bags — because outside of the Bronx taproom, BA Void of Light is exclusively available on Tavour!
As New York’s champion on Business Insider’s list of the Best Beer in Every State, Void of Light is already a must-try brew for Dark Beer fans around the country. But in commemoration of their anniversary, Gun Hill wanted to make an even more robust and complex version to celebrate.
All the richness of cocoa and soothing vanilla is infused with layers of oaky char and tannic dryness. Swirls of caramel drip from notes of almonds and wisps of smoky tobacco. The 7.9% ABV is enveloped into a silky smooth body, ending each sip with a yearning for another.
Snagging a bottle of this limited-release vintage from the award-winning brewers at Gun Hill definitely calls for one heck of a celebration. Feel free to let out a little happy dance when you add it to your crate. Being able to share this rare brew with you makes us dance a little, too.
