Introducing Flambé! Flambé uses one of our base stout recipes with some subtle changes to lay the best foundation possible for these decadent adjuncts. We also introduced Ghanan Cocoa Nibs to the mix to soften and add an additional layer of chocolate to our already chocolatey Imperial Stout recipe. The banana presence is better integrated, more layered, and more intense on the nose with the coconut and cocoa nibs providing a very soft and round experience that showcases all of the ingredients in harmony!

Cellar draught, 2/17/24. Dark, clear, tan ring of bubbles. Spicy, chocolatey, intense caramel and marshmallow. Rich pepper and lingering spice, but like the vibes stuff there's just so much sugar. Not boozey, though. Seems like it's starting to homogenize. Banana, lots of it, but the dark chocolate and biscuity character takes over drying it out a touch to the point where's its almost refreshing after the onslaught of bourbon I just had. Soft, rich, sweet, but good spiciness, almost or balanced-adjacent. Not boozey.

Bottle. Pours black with small tan head that lasts. The aroma is strong banana, toasted coconut, dark chocolate. Slick body, raw coconut, dark chocolate, sweet banana, marzipan, cloying sweetness, very nice.
