Charbay S Aged Hop-Flavored Whiskey

In February 2011, Marko (distiller) became intrigued by Bear Republic’s Big Bear Stout – a beer that you can really sink your teeth into. The bold, roasty, caramel malt flavor is balanced by Centennial and Cascade hops. “It’s extremely complex. Single malts only use a single malt—this Stout has over five different malts, as well as adjuncts and several different hop varieties. All of these qualities come through into an extremely complex whiskey,” explains Marko. Alcohol 49.5% | 99 Proof | 90 points, Whisky Advocate
