Wren House - Seven Stars

An ambitious yet familiar blend of 7 different barrels of various stouts & strong ale. The heart of this blend lies in a single barrel. One that held an incredibly viscous stout base on 4lbs of spent vanilla beans inside what was the Double Vanilla Kingsnake barrel. Complexities from this massive amount of second use vanilla beans are remarkable. So much savory dark fruit jam. The rest of the blend supports this so well; 1x 2 year old imperial stout aged in a buffalo trace barrel, 1x 18month old Braggot aged in a buffalo trace barrel, 2x 18month old Olmec base (no adjuncts) aged in buffalo trace barrels, and to round it all out we put a couple younger (6month) woodford reserve barrel aged stout. Toasted marshmallow, warm honey, chocolate
