Fermented with licorice; a proprietary, hand-smoked malt; and almost a pound of East Kent Goldings hops per barrel.

One of the most sought-after stouts in Bell's history, Black Note Stout blends the complex aromatics of Expedition Stout with the velvety smooth texture of Double Cream Stout and ages the combination in freshly retired oak bourbon barrels for months.
