Anchorage Brewing A Deal With The Devil Batch 6 Triple Oaked 2022

Technical Details

Tasting Profile

Anchorage Brewing Company’s A Deal With The Devil Triple Oaked (Batch 6 – 2022) pours a deep mahogany-chestnut hue with maroon-tinted edges, releasing a quick-to-fade dark khaki foam head that leaves the liquid arrestingly still in the glass — a visual testament to its dense, spirit-soaked character. On the nose, a commanding wave of whiskey barrel leads, followed by rich toffee, butterscotch, dark dried fruits, and a subtle vanilla underpinning developed through three consecutive oak treatments. The palate is lush and full-bodied, coating with a syrupy sweetness that gives way to layered caramel, molasses, and Willett bourbon oak spice.

Bitterness is restrained and firmly in the background, allowing the deep malt backbone and barrel complexity to take full command. As the beer warms, the triple-oaking reveals its nuance — the sweetness recedes and the interplay of charred wood, caramels, and dried plum comes into sharper focus. The finish is long, warming, and richly bourbon-inflected with lingering oak tannins. A monumental cellar candidate, this release rewards patience and contemplative sipping.

Food Pairing

Anchorage A Deal With The Devil Batch 6 Triple Oaked finds an ideal partner in a slow-braised short rib glazed with dark ale reduction — the caramelized meat echoing the beer’s toffee-and-bourbon depth. Equally compelling alongside a platter of aged Comté or Gruyère, whose nutty, crystalline richness plays beautifully against the beer’s triple oak sweetness and warming 17% ABV finish.
