The bad boys at Blue Mountain Brewery are shown here racking a new batch of Dark Hollow, the imperial stout aged in charred oak bourbon barrels. They’ve got it on tap now, and the bottled version should be available in mid-January. And watch out, this whiskey-tinged brew packs a wallop. One batch, aged in Jim Beam Double Black bourbon barrels, tips the abv meter at 10 percent. Arrgg, Matie!

* People say the darndest things, but language stronger than "darn," insulting words like "stupid," ethnically or racially disparaging language, and comparing people to Hitler usually results in deletion of the comment and may get you blocked from further commenting. Ditto for posting unverified and/or potentially libelous allegations, and even off-topic digression. And to avoid spam, any comment containing more than two weblinks gets eaten by Bigfoot.
