What Our Editors Thought
“Chocolate with strong, rich, full berry and red-grape notes in the nose. Bready chocolate brownie flavor plays beautifully with the hearty berry notes, as the sharper end of the berry flavor hones the sweet stout body.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Barrel dominates the nose—both spirit and fruit are there. Heavy on the raspberry notes. Sip brings in well-needed chocolate. Very rich, but not overly sweet. Thick and chewy.”
What the Brewers Say
“Aged in raspberry brandy barrels. Dark chocolate, fresh raspberry, wood, brandy.”
