What Our Editors Thought
“Curious herbal and floral notes weave through the general coffee aroma with a refined and worldly air. Punchy dark chocolate in the sip with a cacao huskiness and a bit of tightening oak tannin that plays against the softer malt sweetness.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Aroma of espresso, red fruits, dark chocolate, vanilla, red hots. Surprisingly intense pepper, cinnamon character with coffee, honey, espresso, cassis. Big and sweet, but not cloying. Nobody is missing the alcohol.”
What the Brewers Say
“Barrel-aged imperial stout made with coffee and cinnamon.”
