About This Beer
I keep having the same bone-chilling nightmare. It shocks me awake, sending shivers down my spine as I stare into a pitch-black night darker than the bottom of a whiskey barrel.
In it, flashes of lightning illuminate a dark room as I reach into my beer fridge. A flurry of glowing ghosts flies from the shelves. I reach past them to grab a bottle of Nightmare Fuel — but it’s vanished!
Tasting Notes
Notes of caramelized oaky spirits swirl through bitter espresso, unleashing dark fruit and roasty chocolate with every smooth sip. As the massive 14.5% ABV warms your body, you’ll swear someone’s behind you.

An excellent blend of chocolate and subtle coffee. The flavors from the whiskey barrel are also prevalent and make this a very tasty stout to put you on your ass

Initial taste is dark fruits from the barrel aging. Slight chocolate and coffee notes that support the overall brew well.

Smooth! Flavorful. Not bitter or sweet like some coffee stouts can be, so we’ll balanced.

River North never misses. Regular Nightmare Fuel was good and this just takes it up a notch with the deep barrel flavors.

heavy coffee and boozy flavors but not overpowering. vanilla helps cut some of the bitterness so you end up with a strong but smooth drink
