Rebrew Cat Sìth Imperial Scotch Ale 2026 Bourbon Soaked Oak Chips

Overview

A dark, robust Imperial Scotch Ale clocking in at 10%, aged on bourbon-soaked oak chips. Expect a complex interplay of caramel, dried fruit, and vanilla-oak with a warming, spicy finish.

Tasting Notes

On the nose, caramelized sugars lead the charge, accompanied by hints of raisins and dried plums. The bourbon chips add layers of vanilla, coconut, and subtle smoke. On the palate, sweet malt richness dominates with toffee and dark fruits, while the oak chips contribute dry tannins and a gentle bourbon warmth. The 10% alcohol is well-integrated yet perceptible. Full-bodied with a long, warming finish where oak and spicy phenols linger.
