Dive headfirst into decadence with our Chocolate River Imperial Stout, the thickest, most indulgent stout we’ve ever released. Inspired by a fantasy of swirling sweetness, this imperial stout delivers waves of deep chocolate malt, velvety cocoa, and a luxurious, sticky body.
No golden ticket required (and no fat children drowning on the premises).

Can, thx Roman M! Pitch black body, bit swampy, fleeting brown head. Huge chocolate aroma, cocoa, some raisins. Sweet taste, odd strawberry jam touch between chocolate waves. Sugary. Yeeeah way too sweet. And some anchovies. What? Why? Not sure.

Appearance is nearly black, with a small beige head which fades quickly. Aroma/ lots of chocolate, cocoa, dark malts, roast malt, coffee hints, more chocolate. Taste is lots of thick chocolate, toffee hints, roast malt, tiramisu, chocolate torte, chocolate sauce, essentially thick and rich chocolate, brown sugar, blended brownie. Slight nutty vibe at the end.
