Imperial Stout with Vanilla

How do you do, fellow metal heads? Can we interest you in some DARK BLACK LIQUID SORCERY?! With like, dangerous medieval spiked ball things. And an EVIL Cthulhu that does bad BAD things from a candlelit throne of sorrow. Like, stabbing sacrificial goats with its tentacles. To make Birria. Mmm yum. Wait, ok, no Birria. Forget we said that. FOCUS. What say you, satanic heathens, if we bring a certifiable expert at METAL to amplify the METAL. Whose expertise is also big delicious stouts. Like David Darkheart Coyne from Obelisk Brewing out of the DAMP DARK PINES AND TREACHEROUS RIVER MOUTH OF CURSED ASTORIA. Because that’s what we did here. All we had to do was summon him via a demonic wail. And crucify a few woodland animals. So BEHOLD! SOMETHING BLACK METAL!

16 oz can poured, picked up at Tapped, Mill Creek. Canned 11/16/23. One of a kind Cloudburst artwork with this unique collab. Jet black pout with a borderline gushing tan cola head. Gentle chocolate aroma is covered by a bright and fragrant vanilla note. Slick and creamy, and this stout shys away from any big roast, bitterness, or bold imperial attributes. Really drinks lighter, doesn't feel imperial, and is well balanced. Less than overdone toast, cool vanilla, a touch of sweet caramel note. A fun and interesting stout here.

16 oz. can, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is full of medium roasted malt, light vanilla, and dark liquorice. Flavour has plenty of dark liquorice, vanilla, moderate roast, and a touch of cocoa. Lots of liquorice and vanilla on the finish. Fairly light-bodied. Not the most complex but well-balanced and tasty enough.
