Moon Rocks is a big, dark, sweet Imperial Stout. The beer is brewed with 8 malts, massive amounts of vanilla and a load of freshly roasted coffee from our neighbours – Stewarts of Trent Bridge. The beer is very lightly hopped as the coffee balances and contributes to the bitterness. After maturation, the final result is a decadent bold and deliciously indulgent beverage.

Bottle taken away from the taproom, drunk at home. Very dark brown with a creamy light tan head. Espresso aroma with some chocolate truffle, marshmallows and a little bit of blackberry. Tastes wonderfully sweet with creamy vanilla notes swirling around the tongue. Delicate earthy hop bitterness in the finish. Wonderful texture - thick and creamy. Like drinking velvet. Low carbonation. Berry notes, coffee and freshly made caramel in the aftertaste.This is special.
