Hardywood Park Craft Brewery Black Forest Cassowary
A rich velvety stout with layers of chocolate, roast complexity. The cherries add a hint of tartness and a dark-fruit character that pairs well with the vanilla, dark chocolate, and roast character. Sweet but not overly cloy-ing. Good lingering roast to add bitterness on the finish, along with some pleasantly warming alcohol notes.
