Side Project — Marble Lions (2026)

Technische Details

Verkostungsprofil

An opulent ode to Elvis’s favorite sandwich, this barrel-aged imperial pastry stout pours with decadent richness built on Side Project’s Horchata base. Roasted peanuts and Thai banana nibs lead the nose, joined by ribbons of Ugandan vanilla, dark cocoa nibs and toasted banana chips. The palate is lush yet measured, as bourbon barrel warmth tempers the pastry sweetness with notes of oak, caramel and gentle whiskey heat. Layers of chocolate, roasted malt and creamy peanut butter linger into a long, dessert-like finish where banana bread meets velvety vanilla.

Lebensmittel-Paarung

Pair with a warm peanut butter banana bread pudding drizzled with bourbon caramel to mirror the beer’s signature flavors. For a savory contrast, try a slice of aged gouda alongside dark chocolate truffles, letting the nutty cheese and bittersweet cocoa play against the stout’s barrel warmth and roasted depth.

Über Side Project Brewing

Über Side Project Brewing

Side Project Brewing was founded in 2013 in Maplewood, Missouri. Brewmaster Cory King created the brewery as a no-compromise venture. The goal was simple: produce extremely limited quantities of experimental and barrel-aged beers.

Side Project operates with a singular philosophy. They push the boundaries of brewing without commercial constraints. Furthermore, they release beers only when they reach optimal maturity and quality.

The brewery has earned international recognition for its exceptional barrel-aged stouts, wild ales, and fruited sour beers. Consequently, many releases have become highly sought after by collectors worldwide. Side Project’s meticulous approach involves extensive barrel aging programs. They often utilise premium wine and spirit barrels alongside unique ingredients.

Their small-batch production model and unwavering commitment to quality have established them as one of the most respected names in American craft brewing. Nevertheless, their limited releases remain among the most anticipated in the global beer community. Moreover, Marble Lions stands as one of their finest achievements — a beer that rewards patience and contemplation.
