Our iconic signature imperial stout with coffee is taken to the next level with this indulgent version. With a decadent combination of cacao nibs, cocoa powder, Madagascar vanilla beans, Fleur de Sel sea salt, and artfully roasted coffee, this Speedway Stout variant is the ultimate dessert in a glass.

Can from Harvest. Pours a pitch black with a finger of brown head that lingers. Big salted caramel aromas with cacao nib brownie notes present as well. Dry on the palate with cacao nib, baker's chocolate, toasted caramel and mild coffee notes. Drying finish, abv hidden really well. Very nice imperial stout.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear, but very dark brown with a large creamy tan head that went foamy. Aroma of chocolate, vanilla and hints of burnt/toasted malt. Maybe coffee. Full bodied. Flavor is the aroma but coffee is very strong, and there's definitely some salt in the brew. Not dry, but avoiding sticky. Bitter from burnt malt. Mind bending.

16 oz. can, pours black with a medium tan head. Aroma is extremely rich and as advertised, with shitloads of salted caramel and brownie batter dominating. Flavour is much less sweet than expected, with lots of roasted coffee, brownie batter, and salted caramel. Rich and full-bodied, but not exactly elegant and somewhat brutal. It's very good as usual but I'm just a huge fan of these adjuncts or the adjunct combo.

Pint can pours with a deep dark black colored body that supports a thin tan head of foam. The aroma offers up sugary brownie notes, milk chocolate and then a thin hit of roasted malts and dark roasted coffee. The taste begins with classic Speedway goodness with dark roasted malts, nearly oily rich dark roasted coffee and a smooth supple body carrying you to midway. As midway is breached milk chocolate as well as a building sweetness and chocolate brownie sensation begin to overtake the experience. Into the finish luckily there's still lingering dark roasted malts preventing this from falling into an oversweet abyss, from which, there's no return. It does remained balanced but the sweetness and sort of contrived brownie sensation kind of auger this thing off the track.

16oz can from Tavour. Near black pour, spotty beige head. Aroma is caramel, Hershey's syrup and some booze. Taste is chocolaty, super sweet, caramel and alcohol burn. Finishes surprisingly fast, but the warmth lingers.
