What Our Editors Thought
“Dark chocolate and damp forest floor aroma with burnt caramel edges. Sweeter chocolate in the sip, with latte-like smooth and creamy roast bitterness.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Massive, rich, sweet, and boozy. Sweet malt, soy sauce, and whiskey aromas, with some vanilla and oak. Flavor is sweet malt, alcohol, whiskey. Hop bitterness prevents this from being pancake syrup. Kahlúa-filled chocolate candy, which is quite nice in small doses.”
What the Brewers Say
“Bourbon barrel–aged imperial stout.”
