This variation of our Imperial Stout combines a portion of the year-round version combined with a portion that went through a lengthy aging process in freshly used tequila barrels. The blend is then combined with Dominican Republic cocoa nibs and cocoa powder, Madagascar Bourbon vanilla beans, Ceylon cinnamon, and blend of Mexican coffees. The result is a luscious, complex brew with notes of vanilla, oak, cocoa, and caramel.

Draft at Rutland arms and 13%. Black with a medium tan head. Aroma is big coffee and chocolate maybe too much cinnamon for me. The tequila gives a slight taste like burnt cheese. Sweet taste with bitter chocolate. Slightly grainy and powdery body.
