A prolonged repose in bourbon-soaked American oak barrels adorns a dark chocolate profile with notes of toasted coconut and vanilla. A rich, supple texture belies the unholy power of our Imperial Oatmeal Stout.

Burk från Beer Republic, 2021. Svart med mocca/brunfärgad tät skumpuck. Inledningsvis massor av lakrits, salmiak och tjärpastill som samsas med fat. Karaktäristiskt Revolution fatlagrad imp stout där fatlagringen stramar åt som tusan. När den kommit upp i temp något öppnar den upp sig och släpper fram toffee, fudge, mörk choklad, nästan lite vaniljtoner, chokladmousse och chokladcrunch. Större kropp rejält åtstramad av fat, men sväller också förvånansvärt i munnen. Gubbigt god och oerhört elegant och stilig, kaxig display av fat. Inget effektsökeri, ingen crowdpleaser, men så välgjort.

Can from Tavour. Pours dark brn/blk with a slight, transient rusty/tan head. Aroma of bourbon and vanilla. Arguably full bodied. Flavor is smooth, sweet burnt malt, heat and bourbon vanilla. Oak for sure. Dark fruits in the finish. And suddenly chocolate. Wowser!

Bit of stouty lubricant in between. Big and strong, but also nicely smooth, nicely oated. Flavourful, heavy roasty, sweet bourbon, rich luscious coffee. Just another delicious Revolution, damn good.
