Sawdust City Brewing Co. - The Appearance of Force

An experimental beer pouring pitch black over a light tan head, this bourbon barrel-aged stout has aromas of tart cherry followed by a hint of oak, tobacco and leather. A tart acidity hits you on the first sip as flavours of roasted malt, cherry cola and amaretto come at you in waves. Layered and complex, the flavours develop as this sour stout warms into a medley of coffee, oats and bourbon.
