What Our Editors Thought
“Strong dark-chocolate aroma with a significant ethanol waft and some shortbread-cookie midtones. Sweeter chocolate in the flavor, with an initial round sweetness amplified by the strong spirit note. Boozy and rollicking.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Big, fudgy sweet chocolate on the nose. Fudgy mouthfeel with a deep, incredibly rich dark-chocolate taste—wonderful chocolate cake and mousse-like. Sweet, boozy, very chocolate-heavy. Oak tannins help balance, but the beer stays very sweet.”
What the Brewers Say
“Imperial stout aged in Stagg Jr. and Blanton’s bourbon barrels.”
