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.

Dark brownish-black pour with a medium tan head that diminishes steadily. Small patches of lacing on the glass. The aroma consists of roasted malt, chocolate and a bit of licorice. Full-bodied with a roasty character of coffee and chocolate malt, along with a bit of dark fruit and anise. The finish is roasty with a charred malt aftertaste.

Rocky tan head kept a creamy top on a still black body. Liquorice, chocolate & bourbon aroma. Medium bodied, smooth & soft with a lively back. Chocolate, sweet, malt, liquorice & coffee tastes with a tangy citrussy finish & bitter aftertaste. Excellent.
