Type Study - Island of Lost Souls (Barrel Aged Copra Cacao)

 In 2015 Jon made a stout called Copra Cacao "is an Imperial Stout aged in cocoa nibs & lots of toasted coconut." I believe this went through a few batches before being renamed to "Barrel Aged Island of Lost Souls..."

The first Untappd check in was on 2015.06.08. The first with a bottle image was on 2016.01.24:

The same hand-drawn label (I believe provided by Jon's daughter Tori) was used until 2017.06.17 when it was updated to something a bit less whimsical.

 I'd imagine that this beer went through several batches like the previous Touch of Death, with Jon making small adjustments to improve the beer and process. Sometime in 2019 the label and name changed to Island of Lost Souls (I suspect when the original Copra Cacao completed barrel aging) - this image is from a 2019.10.25 Untappd check in:

It reuses the previous artwork with a new name, the bottles are adorned with orange wax (at least at this time). There may be examples with different wax (this appears dark, maybe black, but all other images I've seen had the orange wax).

 

Post brewery open (2021.05.12) Jon doesn't release batches of Island of Lost Souls until the official release (on tap and in bottles) on 2022.12.23 accompanied by Escape from Planet Doom. At this point the beer gets an updated label with text overlay and white wax. 

 

 

 The next release was on 2024.11.27 along with Burn All the Witches - this reused the same label but changed the wax color to peacock blue to identify the Cruzan Rum barrel used in aging:

"Aged in a Cruzan Rum barrel for 15 months before being drawn from its wooden cask to soak in mounds of toasted flaked coconut and cocoa nibs. The barrel lends tastes of burnt sugar giving creme brûlée vibes along with brownies, and coconut."

Jon re-released Island of Lost Souls on 2025.09.12 with Season of Sludge. The bottle has the same label but now with a silver wax.

" "Island Of Lost Souls," a 12% Barrel-Aged Stout, and provides tasting notes and details about its production:

• It's a returning, decadent stout that is richer and bolder than previous versions.
• It's aged in a blend of (Cruzan?) Rum, Buffalo Trace, and Elijah Craig barrels.
• The stout is layered with chocolate and raw coconut, resulting in a flavor likened to a "liquid Mounds bar in a glass".

It's described as smooth, luscious, and dangerously drinkable.

 

 

Type Study - Touch of Death Imperial Stout

From my searches, it looks like Touch of Death, an Imperial Stout first appeared in March of 2014 and was one of the earliest beers that Jon Shari attempted. Looks to be at least three batches brewed (but there was probably two batches, the original oatmeal stout then a reworked version - at some point I'll ask Jon what was going on), the initial in March as an oatmeal stout at 13.5% ABV, a second in April (now not an oatmeal stout) at 12.5% ABV, and a third in October at 12.5% in a red waxed bottle.

 

 The image above was from an Instagram post dated 2014.10.15.

 First Untappd checkin 2014.03.23 - note the change of the typeface.

 

It's pretty unusual for a homebrewer to already have labels for his beer so early, somehow Jon managed to have labels on most of his bottles (probably thanks to his daughter Tori). 

The next appearance of Touch of Death was in 2016 with a change to Barrel-Aged Touch of Death at 13% and the description: 

"Barrel-aged in Few Spirits bourbon barrel and then conditioned on cocoa nibs, vanilla, cinnamon, coffee, habanero, and serrano peppers. Sweet chocolate and vanilla accompanied by a Mexican spice that will take your senses on a trip. ??️". 

The first Untappd check in was on 2016.03.12 but that may have been an earlier vintage checked into the wrong beer. The first image check in was on 2016.04.01 - you can see the red wax.

Again, this may have been an earlier bottle checked into the wrong version. 

I believe there was another release of Barrel-Aged Touch of Death with an updated label on 2019.09.14:

The Little Cottage Brewery opened its doors on 2021.05.12.

Jon finally added the Touch of Death as a bottle release on 2024.04.24 with the description:

"Barrel-Aged in Few Spirits bourbon barrel and then conditioned on cocoa nibs, vanilla, cinnamon, coffee, habanero, and Serrano peppers. Sweet chocolate and vanilla accompanied by a Mexican spice that will take your senses on a trip."

Here's an image from a check in on 2024.04.24:

 

Note that there's additional digital shading on the face and another change of font - the wax color is still red.

The 2025.05.05 release features a barrel change and a gold wax color:

"Barrel-aged stout. This year's Touch of Death was aged in an Old Elk bourbon cask before being conditioned on chocolate, Madagascar vanilla, cinnamon, coffee, habanero, and serrano peppers. This is a delicious spicy Mexican chocolate in liquid form."

 

 

I'm looking forward to the next release!

Little Cottage Brewery Releases 2020

These continue Jon Shari's experiments with beer in 2020 as a homebrewer but has started to get some traction in making appearances at various events, so he's priming for a brewery opening. There's a mixture of beers that were submitted to Untappd (and yes, you can create a "homebrewer" style account and post beer reviews there) - I'm not sure if there were other beers for this year - I'll update the list as I get more information.

I'm not sure if these were only kegged or offered in bottles (most likely the latter using bottle conditioning) - it's doubtful that they were labeled (in later years Jon would sometimes bottle with a handwritten scrawl on the bottle). 

Little Cottage Brewery Releases 2014

 

These continue Jon Shari's experiments with beer in 2014 as a homebrewer. There are seven beers (as of 2025.12.05) that were submitted to Untappd (and yes, you can create a "homebrewer" style account and post beer reviews there) - I'm not sure if there were other beers for this year - I'll update the list as I get more information. These are by submission date and with any notes if I have them. The Rumpkinilla collaboration with Ale Sharpton is worth noting - seems Jon's beer was already getting some notoriety in 2014.
