`GENESIS 002` is a black beer made by blending imperial stout base beers with different characteristics after aging them for up to 32 months in rum barrels, Heaven Hill barrels, and Buffalo Trace barrels. Designed to foreground the deep aroma derived from the wooden casks and the concentrated umami, it suggests a full-bodied drinking experience. The post also uses expressions that evoke notes of chocolate and roast, indicating a finish that lets drinkers enjoy a balance of sweetness, bitterness, and barrel aroma.
That said, the beer's impression is shaped by more than just its specs. The description presents a concept evoking silence and a cosmic worldview, underscoring Uchu Brewing's distinctive sense of style. Based in Hokuto, Yamanashi, Uchu Brewing has drawn attention for its unique naming and expressions, and with this 'GENESIS 002' it again presents taste and storytelling as one package.
Taking the barrel-aging design, the 12% alcohol content, and the two-bottle set into account, this is a beer you will want to approach slowly. For people who value depth from aging and the density characteristic of black beer more than flashiness, it looks like a release not to miss.
