Rain, rain, come and stay; I could sip this beer all day! The delicious midpoint between our iconic imperial stouts Chocolate Rain and Grey Monday, Rainy Days is the perfect way to brighten up a gloomy day. With cacao nibs, hazelnuts, and cashews beautifully complimenting our bourbon barrel-aged So Happens It’s Tuesday base, you’ll be tempted to go jump in some puddles to celebrate.

On tap at BeerTemple. Pours black with a beige head. Tons of burnt sugar, blackstrap molasses, hazelnuts, and bourbon barrels on the nose. Flavour has a fairly rich malt profile, lots of molasses and dark sugars, hazelnuts, and a very bourbon-y finish. Very nice.

Keg at BrewDoge Soho, 29/11/24. Black with a tan cap that thins to the edge. Nose is ripe dark fruit rinds, chocolate, spice, hint of coffee, bourbon whack. Taste comprises cacao nibs, gentle spice, bourbon barrel, molasses, figs, dates, candied fruit rinds. Medium bodied ,oily feel, semi drying close with a balanced rising boost. Solid kit.

Keg at Brewdog Castlegate. It pours oily black with a small brown head. The aroma is rich and intoxicating, huge chocolate character, cakey, rocky road, cookie dough, vanilla ice cream with chocolate sauce, toasted nut, praline, ferrero rocher, warming booze, bourbon soaked oak, leather and burnt toffee. The taste is slick, oily, quite drying upfront, some bitterness, super dark roasted malts, charred, light umami, burnt toast, tannin, bourbon soaked oak, chocolate dot com, gateaux, toasted nuts, hazelnut stands out, cacao nibs, praline, toffee, pecan pie and alcohol that slaps you in the chops. The finish is drying dark roasted malt with toffee & bourbon weaving their way through. Full body, average carbonation and slick mouth feel. The big boozy bourbon slap keeps the sweetness in check. Fun stuff overall. Good winter sipper.

Draft at the Beer Temple, Amsterdam. Poured a clear dark brown colour with a thin broken off white head. The aroma is roasted malt, big molasses. The flavour is roasty, big molasses, boozy, liqourice bitter, sugary light vanilla palate. Full bodied with soft carbonation.

The sweetness and nuttiness is sufficiently balanced by the spicey alcohol. Though it is more pastry-side than i would have preferred. Beertemple ams
