Did the flavors of sugar and bitter sweet almonds and coffee in Imperial Biscotti Break also make you sentimental? Now we topped it off with insane amounts of doughnuts. This all time American favorite is making it’s way back into the spotlight and we at Evil Twin Brewing are not letting a tasty trend pass us by without taking it to the next level. Drink it with great gusto - Forza Doughnuts.

Can, E$. Near black. Just a whisp of a head. Rich roasty nose with light nuttiness, caf� cubano and just a touch of vanilla. On the palate, it’s got some chocolate, some coffee, and mellow vanilla. I like it - was this one of the earliest dessert stouts?

1 pint can, canned 11/15/17.
Dark brown to black, oily body, with a big, dense, creamy, a bit lacing, coffee-colored head.
Aroma of cocoa powder, dark chocolate, tiramisu, biscuit, coffee, vanilla, some nuts.
Tastes similar, with some boozy chocolate liqueur.
Full, oily mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation.
Finishes warm, medium roasty, medium sweet, with dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, some liquorice, some nuts.
Really tasty. More on the sweet side of course, but really well balanced, with enough roastiness. Alcohol is noticeable, while well included, providing a comfortable warmth. Lovely, big dessert sipper.
Score: 8 / 4 / 8 / 4 / 17

Pitch black colored, medium tan creamy head, nice lacing. Aroma is sugary sweet, milk and dark chocolate, brown sugar, biscuit, vanilla, bit coffee and roast. Taste is very sweet, roasted malt, milk and dark chocolate, brown sugar, biscuit, some vanilla notes, bit of coffee, medium roasty bitterness, touch of alcohol. Full bodied, chewy, soft carbonation. Too sweet, almost cloying.

On tap. Black colour, small brown head. Aroma is like cake: dark chocolate, plum, toffee, walnut, some coffee. Alcohol starts to dusturb after some time. Creamy texture. Good, but only in small size.
