Black Friday might be a stressful day for most department stores, but it'll be a relaxing time at Hay Camp Brewing Company's Black Friday Beer Release.

Hay Camp will release a keg of Transcendence, their bourbon barrel aged Russian imperial stout, according to co-owner Sam Papendick.

"It was aged in a rye bourbon barrel for over a year," Papendick said. "It's a beer with a lot of dark fruit notes, real heavy dark chocolates, almost like a smoked cherry note."

Papendick added that the drink, which has over 12 percent alcohol by volume, is a better beer to sip than chug.

"One sip lasts for a whole minute, just a sweep of flavors that hits you, so it's definitely a sipper," Papendick said. "I hate using the word complex, but it's definitely got a lot going on."

Additionally, the beer is limited edition, brought out of the cellar only on special occasions.

"We'll never be able to replicate it, so once this batch is gone, it's gone," Papendick said. "It's a special beer, but I think anyone can appreciate it."
