Quit Stalin made its way into more regular production after glowing reviews and popularity although its distribution remains limited. Without being astringent, a solid roasty backbone, full body, and absolute velvet finish round out hints of nutty toffee and chocolate. The barrels impart fantastic oak and vanilla characteristics, and a muted hop aroma allows the caramel maltiness to shine. Akin to many of our 4Seasons beers, as it shares the same barrels and is often the base used for 4Seasons blending.

Draft at Red Feather. Near black pour, with creamy beige head. Roast grain aroma gives way to a stronger taste. Alcohol heat comes out too. Coffee notes. Nice finishing bitterness. Not too strong.
