About this beer

Left Hand Brewing Co.’s Wake Up Dead is a robust Imperial Stout, aged in Bourbon Barrels and weighing in at a significant 13.7% ABV. The beer presents a deeply dark, ruby-hued appearance and is built upon a base of malted barley, rolled oats, and a curated selection of hops. The aging process imparts noticeable characteristics of bourbon, lending notes of dark chocolate, toasted oak, and smooth vanilla to the overall flavor profile. The label artwork features a striking, shadowy illustration of a looming figure with a hand making a pinching gesture, set against a backdrop of swirling, spectral energy, reinforcing the “awakened” theme of the beer.

The description on the label emphasizes a rich and immersive experience – a “dreaming dark dream” that delivers a warming spell and casts its eye upon the drinker. It’s intended for cellar aging, with a recommendation of up to 5 years, hinting at a potential for further maturation and complexity. The beer’s composition and high alcohol content suggest a full-bodied, indulgent stout meant to be savored.
