Opulent imperial stout flavoured with maple syrup and tonka beans.
OK, this is pure opulence. Imagine all the delicious things and add them to rich chocolatey stout.
It pours pitch black with thick and firm light brown head that leaves solid lacing on the walls of your glass.
Aroma is sweet vanilla and marzipan with the hint of maple syrup. In flavor intense sweetness of maple syrup, vanilla, mocha is balanced with the bitterness of dark dark chocolate and oak from rum barrels.

Street share @ Yoyogi. Pours pitch black, nice creamy nose with roast and some maple syrup shining through. Relatively sweet in flavour, maple is not strong but you can still feel it. Great balance and well, actually would really love to try this with some maple cookies, would be amazing. Beer to be savoured.
