ICONYC Vexed Imperial Stout

Light-bodied but intensely rich, Vexed challenges the concept of a traditional stout. Unconventionally combining the refreshing qualities of a saison with an imperial stout aged on coffee, cacao, vanilla, cinnamon, and oak. Highly controversial and much debated, Vexed will leave your thoughts in turmoil.

New Beer Distributors, NYC bottle: pours black with a beige head. Aroma is chocolate, fresh medium roast coffee, farmhousiness, and light roast. Taste is sweet and kind of dry. Very light bodied for the large size. An easy drinking and tasty stout.
