This is the first beer for the 2020 Advocator Membership. Salutations is an Imperial Stout treated with toasted pistachios and Ugandan vanilla beans. The distinct pistachios lingers as the sweet vanilla imperial stout provides a custardy base beer.

On tap at Mikkeller & Friends, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma is full of rich pistachios, dark sugars, moderate roast, and bourbon barrels. Flavour is less obviously expressive of the pistachios, with dark sugars, moderate roast, and some bourbon barrels. The nuts are much more aromatic; the flavour is more just great dark malts, sugars, and barrels. Excellent.

Pours a dark, cola black, with minimal head. Aroma has notes of chocolate, coffee, vanilla, nuts. Flavor is chocolate, vanilla, nuts, some anise/licorice. It has some sweetness to it. Mouthfeel is maybe a bit on the thin side for a stout. Not bad by any means. Bottle and crowler.
