Bottle Logic Brewing Co. 'Teraphobia' Vanilla Fig Stout is a bold collaboration with Pennsylvania’s Voodoo Brewery, rooted in the artistry of brewing monster-inspired stouts. Born in California, this Bourbon Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout spent 25 months maturing in Heaven Hill and rye whiskey casks, infusing it with rich layers of oak, bourbon warmth, and rye spice. At 14.5% ABV, it embodies the daring spirit of Halloween, inviting adventurous palates to confront their darkest cravings.
The stout’s flavor profile is a hauntingly indulgent blend of Madagascar vanilla beans and house-brûléed figs. These elements bring out notes of flame-kissed fruit, dark caramel, and bourbon-soaked oak, complemented by the spice and complexity of the rye barrels. The addition of figs, a nod to ancient mythology and Voodoo Brewery’s signature stouts, creates a depth that lingers long after each sip, perfectly marrying sweetness and smoky richness.
Best enjoyed sipped slowly, Teraphobia is ideal for savoring on a chilly evening, either on its own or paired with decadent desserts like dark chocolate cake or spiced fig tarts. Its luxurious texture and layered complexity make it a masterpiece for those who appreciate the art of barrel-aged brewing.
