An Imperial Stout brewed by Hand Brew Co and BrewDog Brighton for Collabfest 2022.
Intense and full bodied stout packed full of rich oak notes; balancing dark chocolate, dried fruits, sweet molasses and vanilla with heady echoes of brandy and bourbon. Incorporating Belgian yeasts, brewing sugars and Special B malt contributing deep esters and rich fig before aging on Tuaca soaked French Oak for a hedonistic, boozy finish.

On tap at BrewDog Outpost Tower Hill, pours black with a medium tan head. Aroma brings out dry oak and bready malt. Flavour is dry, oaky, and moderately roasty. Real nice oaky character, with a dry roasty finish. Really well-brewed. Excellent.

Keg at BD Waterloo, 20/10/22. Black with a good sized khaki covering that veers to a swirl. Nose is chocolate, molasses, herb, spice, dried fruits. Taste comprises chocolate, fruit slice, herb, liquorice, charr, mellow roast, sticky toffee pudding. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a rising kiss of alcohol. Not bad but lacking depth for the hefty ABV.
