In collaborative effort with the @weatheredsoulsbrewing Black is Beautiful initiative—which hundreds of breweries from around the world are participating in. Our slight change up on this open sourced recipe took this stout in a slightly different direction. AZ grown @sinaguamalt copeland barley makes up the base malt, followed by some deep double roasted crystal, super dark roast malt, oats. Low alpha acid Cascade hops used throughout the boil. Fermented with our favorite English yeast strain at cool temps. Super smooth, rich roast, caramel hard candy, cocoa. 5.9%. Classic flavorful pub stout.
This beer represents another release from us in which proceeds will be benefiting the NAACP. The idea was simple, use our resources to do what we can to brew for a cause. We want these releases to not only support a great organization, but also bring awareness to the fact that socially inequality is very real, and very present in our day to day lives. Along with that, we hope that the steps that we and other breweries are taking will continue to encourage and foster inclusion in the craft beer industry and beyond.

Pint can pours pitch black with a tan colored head of foam. The aroma offers up roasty malts, highly roasted black patent malts, dark roasted coffee and a thin hit of black licorice. The taste delivers full dark roastiness that runs right up and past charred like malts. To midway it picks up a sense of dark roasted coffee laced with a bit of spicy black licorice. Nice highly roasted offering.
