Galway Bay Counting Off The Days 50cl 13°
The know-how of the Irish brewer Galway Bay and its ageing in stainless steel barrels for a whole year brings all its balance to this Imperial Stout Counting Off The Days.
It is then aged in Bourbon and rum barrels for another nine months, creating a rich and complex blend of flavours and a dense and velvet beer on the palate.
We find notes of chocolate, bitter cocoa, espresso coffee and liquorice, a touch of fresh vanilla and salty caramel at the end of the mouth from ageing in cask.

Founded in 2009 by two friends Jason O'Connell and Niall Walsh, the Galway Bay brewery has grown rapidly.
Jason and Niall opened a small pub in Galway on the West Coast of Ireland with the aim of offering their customers locally made fresh beers alongside a full range of international craft beers.
It was quickly obvious that the beer produced deserved to be shared. Eight years and eleven bars later, the Galway Bay brewery has grown from an annual production of just 300 hectoliters to over 5,000 hectoliters today.
Their beers and brewery have been rewarded on numerous occasions both in Ireland and internationally. Galway Bay Brewery has recently been voted best brewery and best beer producer in Ireland by Rate Beer and has won a silver medal in the World Cup for "Buried at Sea".
