Imperial pint can, 2021 vintage. Cinnamon aroma with notes of roasted malt, chocolate, earthy rye, vanilla, coffee, coconut, oak and whiskey. Pours deep brown with a thin mocha brown head that has little retention and no lacing. Starts with rich roasted malt, chocolate, earthy rye, coffee and coconut flavors as well as having a rich, full body and silky smooth mouthfeel. Finishes very smooth with cinnamon, vanilla, oak and whiskey flavors as well as a touch of warming booze at the very end. Excellent imperial that hides the high ABV well. Perfect for a chilly evening.
