16 ounce can purchased at the Casey taproom.- old-school American imperial stout reminiscent of Old Rasputin - deeply roasty and moderately bitter - chocolate sweetness swells through the middle - a second wave of deep roast, espresso and light acidity late - finish has light smoke and a slight vinous note - it’s strong, but not totally in this brewer’s wheelhouse.
