Goose Island Bourbon County Special #4 Stout

Special #4 is an oatmeal stout variant of their original BCS recipe, also aged in bourbon barrels, that uses crystal oats to add a pleasantly nutty character and a smooth mouthfeel. After barrel aging, they added Intelligentsia Coffee (both their cold coffee and single origin blend from Ethiopia) to create a fruity coffee character. Lastly bourbon barrel-aged maple syrup from Bissel Maple Farms in Ohio is added, which creates mote complexity to the nutty oats and coffee to rounding the flavors, ultimately reminiscent of your breakfast 'special' at the local diner.
