Imperial Funkin' Sour Stout

Can from the Packie Solid black in color with a stingy tan head that dissipates almost instantly. Fudgey chocolate maltiness with a hint of tannin and a moderate cherry lactic presence. Not to bad.

16 oz. can. I chatted with the Brewer about this about 7 months ago. From memory he used a red wine barrel to age it in. That would make sense for what I am drinking. The aroma is very mild chocolate and coffee with red grapes hints. The flavor is all sharp funky lactic acid and major pucker in the taste buds. Red wine and plenty of acid.

I can't taste any of the stout under the sour grapes. This is not a stout even if the name implies it. You have to really want a sharp sour to enjoy this. And yes, this was done on purpose.
