Imperial Brown Ale with Chestnuts. We did this for no reason. So under no circumstances are you to expect anything. Except a rich, chocolaty and nutty, barrel aged brown ale. Jorge pours dark and roasty, so don’t be alarmed when you ask for another. It’s not you, it’s Jorge.

Can. Brown pour. Aroma of sweet bourbon, cherry vanilla, caramel fudge, figs, dates, molasses and lots of caramel. Taste of bitter caramel fudge, vanilla, oak, figs, dates, raisin, bitter caramel, malt, nuttiness and a bitter boozy nutty finish. Strange, but nice.

Sweet toasted malt, cocoa, nuts and oaky bourbon. Thin bodied for a big brown ale. Notes of vanilla, toffee and dried fruit are prominent in mid taste. Finishes with strong oak and bourbon notes.
