From Omnipollo:

I love stout. In fact, the first beer I brewed as a homebrewer was a stout.

We started our beloved Church brewery 5 years ago and the first beer we brewed was a stout. Since then we have built out the church stout program, barrel by barrel. Carefully and obsessively honing our base recipes, hunting down barrels from our favorite spirit makers and developing our post barrel treatment under the working name, CAKEIFICATION. A couple of months ago we felt that we had reached full CAKEIFICATION in a trial and so the search for the perfect barrel was on.

That barrel turned out to be a big (duh) double mashed, long-boil imperial stout aged for a year in fresh Sazerac barrels and then transferred into dripping wet apple brandy barrels for another year. A symphony of expressive barrel, chocolate and caramelized Tarte Tatin.

Over the coming months this beer underwent a gentle, cold and slow CAKEIFICATION using a spectrum of coconut at different toasting levels, more vanilla than we’ve ever used (Indonesian Java and Madagascan bourbon) and heaps and heaps of toasted peanuts.

The result?

In short, CAKE® is the pinnacle of our stout program and we cannot wait to share it with you.
