(Athen, OH) – Jackie O’s is planning a special event in two weeks.
Jackie O’s Pub and Brewery located in Athens OH, has received label approval for two beers that will see a pub only release September 11th. The two beers are Bourbon Barrel Dark Apparition and Oil of Aphrodite. Both brews are Imperial Stouts and will be packaged in 22oz bombers. Bourbon Barrel Dark Apparition is our signature RIS aged in Woodford reserve bourbon barrels for 9 months. 10.5«v and bursting with flavors of honey, chocolate, vanilla, malted milk balls, coffee, and coconut. Oil of Aphrodite is another imperial stout that was brewed with 4 different chocolate malts, locally harvested black walnuts, and belgian dark candied syrup. The Oil is 10% abv and very thick and has a deep chocolate character that acts as a perfect spring board for walnut nuttiness.
Along with the bottle release we will be throwing a barrel aged beer fest as well. Here are some details about both release and the festival.
