A Note on This Beer

It’s back! The 4.50 Tavour-rated 2018 vintage of Bourbon Barrel Aged Dark Star: Coffee Edition! Our friends at Fremont reached deep into their cellar and shared some of the last remaining bottles of this long time favorite.

If you’ve never had the immense pleasure of sipping this dark decadence, BBADS is a blend of Stouts aged 8, 12, 18, and 24 months in seven to twelve-year-old Kentucky bourbon barrels. Coffee additions provide a roasty complement to the opulent barrel-aging notes. 

Years in the cellar only add to the intricacy. It’s like sipping a gourmet box of dark chocolate truffles with opulent whiskey caramel, coffee liquor, and vanilla mousse notes swimming throughout. 

How happy will your holidays be this year? That depends on whether or not you're fast enough to snag these bottles before our tiny stash disappears! 

Rated 4.50 on Tavour!

The classic we all know and love... Solid, sometimes outperformed by its brethren, but always a treat.

Dark malts with a hint of charred oak play a stronger role, balancing notes of dark chocolate, bourbon spice, and a lingering hint of vanilla.
