A home run, a walk, or a strikeout: These are the three true outcomes in baseball, events that result solely from the duel between pitcher and batter with no help or hinderance from fielders. We celebrate the outcomes with the addition of cacao, vanilla and coconut, to this imperial stout aged in brandy vanilla barrels.

500 ml. Thank you TJ for sharing this Catador Club bottle! Aroma is dry chocolate, malt, weak vanilla. Flavor follows. Texture is smooth with the ABV hidden well. Not overly sweet at all. Brandy is mild in the finish. Tasty!

2023 bottle shared by Chalumeaux on 10/19/24, thanks, TJ. Clear dark chocolate mahogany. No head. Lovely vanilla and rich dark chocolate, but also some rather overt alcohol. But the other adjuncts are done tastefully. Woah! Taste like s'mores and heavy graham cracker with soft, creamy vanilla. Rich, savory, soft, sweet, succulent. That's incredible. Can't believe it smells so dry, floral, alcoholic. Good maltiness and attenuation. Somehow no booze in the flavor.
