4.5Untappd

The Void Batch 3 from Anchorage Brewing Company pours an intensely deep dark brown, bordering on opaque black, with a thin khaki collar that settles quickly into a lasting ring — true to the beer’s dramatic name. On the nose, bold waves of bourbon barrel lead the charge, accompanied by dried dark fruit, leather, candied Belgian sugar, and a whisper of new oak vanilla. The palate is viscous and slick, coating the mouth with a syrupy richness that belies a surprisingly lively carbonation underneath. Flavors of ripe raisin, fig, brown sugar, and dark bread emerge alongside the dominant Calumet Farms bourbon character, with faint tobacco and earthy yeast notes adding complexity. Bitterness is restrained, letting the barrel and malt do the heavy lifting. The finish is long and warming, drying on the oak tannins with a bourbon exhale that lingers beautifully. A serious sipper demanding patience and a snifter glass, this rare Alaskan release rewards cellaring and is best enjoyed slowly, ideally alongside like-minded enthusiasts of world-class barrel-aged ales. Rated 4.3/5 on Untappd. Full community tasting notes available at https://untappd.com/b/anchorage-brewing-company-the-void/5761975.

Anchorage Brewing The Void Batch 3 Belgian Quadrupel is a natural companion to a well-aged Comté or Époisses cheese, where the funk and fat of the cheese mirror the beer’s barrel-driven depth. For a dessert pairing, a dark chocolate and salted caramel tart amplifies the brown sugar sweetness and bourbon warmth, creating a luxurious, cohesive experience worthy of this exceptional Alaskan release.
