Escondido, California - Black IPA Aged in Rye Whiskey Barrels - 11.60% ABV - This ale poured a dark cola color with a layer of khaki colored foam that leaves excellent lacing on the glass. The nose featured aromas of whiskey, vanilla, oak, and pine that come together to create a wonderful bouquet. The mouth was solid; flavors of vanilla, rye, cocoa, oak, and whiskey are prevalent throughout the brew. The mouthfeel was medium-plus with a silky, long finish that lingers in the mouth. I loved the Sublimely Self Righteous aged variant- I can definitely go for some more. I enjoyed this brew at Stone Liberty Station, it's such a neat place. Cheers! 9.1/10
