The Bruery Black Tuesday is one of the most legendary barrel-aged imperial stouts in the craft beer world, renowned for its intensity, depth, and limited availability. First released in 2009 by The Bruery in Placentia, California, this bold stout takes its name from the infamous 1929 stock market crash, reflecting both its rarity and its formidable strength. Brewed with a robust mash bill of specialty malts and aged for over a year in charred American oak bourbon barrels, Black Tuesday achieves staggering complexity and balance despite boasting an ABV that often reaches 18–20%.
On the palate, expect a decadent cascade of flavors—rich dark chocolate, roasted coffee, molasses, vanilla, and caramel, layered with undertones of charred oak, dried figs, and bourbon-soaked cherries. The mouthfeel is full-bodied and silky, delivering a warming, almost spirit-like finish that lingers luxuriously. Despite its high proof, the beer’s structure maintains elegance, making it both a collector’s treasure and a connoisseur’s delight.
Over the years, Black Tuesday has earned cult status and multiple awards, including recognition from the World Beer Cup and the Great American Beer Festival. Each annual release is highly sought after, with enthusiasts often marking their calendars for its debut. Rooted in The Bruery’s philosophy of innovation and craftsmanship, Black Tuesday stands as a defining expression of what barrel-aged stout can achieve: opulence, balance, and timeless appeal.
