What Our Editors Thought
“Integrated dark fruit, caramel, vanilla, deep cacao tones in the nose provide a rich aromatic plunge. A touch of sweetness on the tip of the sip quickly drops into nutty, smooth malt with a touch of char that stays taut despite the big boozy flavors.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Engaging bourbon aroma with vanilla, milk chocolate, brown sugar. Dried cherries, figs, plums, toasted whole-wheat bread. Flavor delivers sweet dried fruit, medium roast.”
What the Brewers Say
“Imperial stout.”
