What Our Editors Thought
“Woody, wet-dog note on the nose. The sip is more structured woody tannin with a big bread crust note, but surprisingly restrained roast.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Nutty chocolate aroma with a tart, carbonic bite. Rich roast malt, licorice, with hints of clove and cinnamon, reminiscent of Mexican hot chocolate. Spicy through the finish. Finish a touch sweet. Medium full body.”
What the Brewers Say
"Deeper black, darker chocolate and fuller roast flavors than in this roaring imperial stout's little sibling. Watch the snow fall outside, it's already winter."
