About The Beer

Style: Imperial/Double Stout
Format: 500ml Can
ABV: 11.5%
A smokey Imperial Stout made not for the fainthearted. Weighing in at 11.5%, this unctuous monster oozes with coffee, chocolate and campfire.
Grassy and pine needle hops assault the nose, with subtle undertones of smoked malt. The flavour is all you would expect from an American Imperial Stout. Cocoa and chocolate flavours, layered with coffee and intense smokey bitterness.
A cacophony of flavours that somehow works. The alcohol is integrated and belies its true strength. Approach with caution!
