What Our Editors Thought

“Chocolate and very light smoke on the nose lead into a whiskey-driven sip with subtle dark fruit (almost vinous) and bold roasty notes. Dark chocolate lingers.”

What Our Panel Thought

“Quintessential barrel-aged stout nose: roasted barley, whiskey, vanilla, and caramel. The flavor profile takes a bit of a detour, adding some berry and stone-fruit complexities. Pleasantly sweet, a smidge boozy.”

What the Brewers Say

"Imperial stout brewed with English hops and English malts then aged in Adnams Southwold single malt whisky barrels from Suffolk County, England."
