Rich and chocolatey Imperial Stout aged for 8 months on tonka, vanilla, coffee and cacao in a Wild Turkey bourbon barrel. A warming beast of a stout for a cold Winter night

Solid stuff! Sweet but rather sweet RIP sweet than pastry stout sweet. Plenty of vanilla and tonka. The latter is one tricky seed which I find gives beers a slightly medicinal note when pronounced. Roasty and decently bitter. Robust body rather than oily.

Can picked up from Hoptimism, Webshop, Leicestershire, UK. Had this at home Wednesday 6th January 2021 listening to Billy Nomates - No and cooking homemade Fish Pie, technically seafood as there are more prawns, mussels and squid than fish. Pours black with a tan head, rich and oily textured beer, big on the bean front and a little bit in yerโ face with the barrel ageing. Of course all of the usual things are here, chocolate, coffee, vanilla etc, and whilst itโs not bad it is a bit heavy handed.

440ml can. Pitch black with almost no head. Aroma of bourbon, tonka, dark chocolate. Taste has lots of whiskey, rich with tonka, dark chocolate, coffee, a little creamy vanilla then lots more oaky bourbon in the finish, booze. Medium-full bodied, very smooth. Whiskey/barrel is almost overpowering the beer, aside from that it's pretty amazing stuff.
