We’re staying true to the advent of Dark Beer Season with not one but two new STROOPWAFEL Imperial Stouts in two too-cute-to-be-believed-but-not-too-cute-to-not-drink 250-mL cans!
Expect a rich, sweet and malty backbone with biscuity stroopwafel and caramel notes thanks to a specialty malt base, extended boil and addition of vanilla and cinnamon to the brew, and a chocolate-dipped delight with delicious cocoa notes to follow that up.

250 ml can. pours a dark brown with no head. Aromas of vanilla, creamy sweet chocolate icing, and slick roasted malts. There are some initial vegetal flavours but after that there is sweet chocolate icing, cinnamon pastry, and biscuity malts. Seems a little light overall. A bigger maltier base would help I think.

8oz @ Ryan's shared with Alecx (thx for the beer!)
Artificial, some chocolate and grassy notes. Taste is along the same lines, moderately sweet, some roasted malt bitterness. Meh.

Poured from 250mL can. Very dark brown with minimal off white head. Burnt caramel, fairly thin, lacks complexity, meh.

Little wee mini can. Dark brown. Medium head. The aroma is not promising...comes across like this will be a thin. That's the case - the base stout lacks richness or refinement. There's some of the vanilla and cinnamon, and those elements are good. But it needs a richer base to give it the right dessert structure.

On tap at the brewery. Pours dark brown with large foamy beige head. Brown sugar, caramel, and a touch of chocolate on the nose. Flavour has corn syrup, cinnamon, strained malts floating around in the background. A very disappointing imperial stout.

On tap at Main Street, pours black with a tiny beige head. Aroma is like a liquid stroopwaffel, with sweet, maple syrup-covered waffles, but without any malt backbone. Flavour is all flavouring and little malt backbone, with a syrupy sweet finish that has little complexity. This doesn�t work at all. Pastry without the stout.
