This Imperial Stout Is a blend of two different Imperial stouts. One was aged in a Tokaji dessert wine barrel from Hungary, whilst the other in a 12year Blair Athol Scottish Whisky barrel

The combo of the two barrels giving it a big old school imperial stout vibe, along with a sweet desert wine.
A little sweet, a little savoury,a lot delicious.

Cannibalism & Witchcraft Is a reference to the “Great Famine” from the 1300's in Europe. Where Men, Women and Children were banded as witches , blamed and burnt at the stake. And where cannibalism was sometimes the choice between living and not

Can from Cork and Cask. Pours oily black with no head to speak of. Aromas of wood, smoke and whisky, smoked meat, smoked salmon maybe. A hint of liquorice. Thick texture. Taste is boozy chocolate, warming spice, wood tannin and leather. Was hoping for some Tokaji vibes as I do like a good dessert wine now and again, but I'm not finding it. Good gear nevertheless.
