What Our Editors Thought
“Dark fruit and deep cacao on the nose, with a light spicy note. Prickly but thin on the tongue, dry and succinct with a quick burst of chocolate and alcohol that fades fast.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Hints of roasting coffee and crispy marshmallow on a delicate nose. Flavor is well rounded and compact. Dried blueberries, rich chocolate syrup, chicory. Malt, sweet spirits, alcohol nicely balanced. Tannins, vanilla add complexity.”
What the Brewers Say
“Russian imperial stout. Roasted-chocolate and burnt-malt flavors. Aged in Heaven Hill Bourbon barrels.”
