Narwhal Imperial Stout is inspired by the mysterious creature that thrives in the deepest fathoms of the frigid Arctic Ocean. Rich with notes of espresso, baker’s cocoa, roasted grain and a light hint of smoke, Narwhal brims with malt complexity. Aggressive but refined with a velvety smooth body and decadent finish, Narwhal will age in the bottle for years to come.

Bottle at home. Pours black with a beige head. Nose is molasses and booze, coffee and dark chocolate with hints of roasted malts and hints of dried fruits. Taste is roased malts, dark chocolate, light coffee and dried fruits and berries. Closes with coffee and roasted malts, also some coffee, the finish lasts long and it's warming. It has a medium to full body, rich and creamy with a soft carbonation. Nice RIS, nothing to write home about, but pretty tasty.
