Yes, this is the beer you've heard so much about!
Brewed with a ridiculous amount of barley, World Wide Stout is dark, roasty and complex. This Ageable Ale clocks in at 15-20% ABV and has a depth more in line with a fine port than with a can of cheap, mass-marketed beer.
World Wide debuted in the winter of 1999, and the staying power of this brew is undeniable. Like Fort and 120 Minute IPA, World Wide Stout only gets better with age (more on aging beers here). After some time in your beer cellar, the heat of the booze fades into the background and the port notes and roastiness take over.
World Wide goes great with (or as!) dessert. Share one with someone you love.
Admin Note: This entry is for standard World Wide Stout that clocks in at 15% - 20% abv.

2016 bottle from J's shared at CB. Pours a deep brown to black with some light purple highlights and a beige-brown head. Deep cacao nib and roasted malt aromas with prune, raisin and plum as it warms. Booze is there, but surprisingly hidden well. 2 plus years of age on this bottle and it seems to be in a good place. Lots of dark fruit on the palate as well, with molasses, coffee, roasted dark malt, cacao and light tobacco as it warms. Big body and lingering dark brown sugar and cacao on the finish. Some marshmallow notes somehow as well. --- Beer merged from original tick of World Wide Stout on 02 Feb 2019 at 01:14 - Score: 8
