Thin Man Brewery Rye Barrel Aged Awesome Jenkins [Batch 1: Willet Rye]
Imperial Stout 14 º
This formidable Imperial Stout emerges from a two-year slumber in Willet Rye barrels with an imposing, complex character. The extended aging in the specific Willet Rye casks imparts deep layers of cocoa-rich tootsie roll and fluffy marshmallow, woven together by a distinctively sharp, peppery spice. Despite its massive alcohol content, the profile remains harmonious rather than sharp, showcasing the synergy between the roasty malt base and the spirited barrel influence. It delivers a decadent, slow-sipping experience where dark chocolate meets vanilla-tinged oak, culminating in a persistent, velvety warmth that defines its bold, barrel-forward identity.
Appearance. Jet black and completely opaque (SRM 40+). Pours with a thin, deep tan head that shows low retention due to high alcohol content, leaving thick, viscous legs on the glass upon swirling.
Aroma. Intense and multi-layered, featuring dominant notes of dark chocolate, espresso, and charred grain. The barrel influence is prominent, contributing rich vanilla, marshmallow, and a sharp, peppery rye spice. Substantial dark fruit esters reminiscent of raisins and dried figs are present, supported by a noticeable but well-integrated alcohol presence.
Taste. Initial impression is a massive wave of bittersweet chocolate and tootsie roll, followed by toasted marshmallow sweetness. Mid-palate reveals strong roasted malt bitterness and coffee-like char, which is quickly balanced by the spicy, oaky tannins of the rye barrels. The finish is long and complex, featuring lingering notes of cocoa, wood spice, and a significant but smooth alcoholic warmth. Complexity is high, with the barrel and base beer melding into a seamless, decadent whole.
Mouthfeel. Very full-bodied, thick, and chewy with a luscious, velvety texture. Carbonation is delicate and low, enhancing the beer's weight on the palate. A significant, smooth warmth is felt in the throat, reflecting the high alcohol content without being harsh or solventy.
