We met Petteri and Mikko from Revenant at the last Pühaste Õllepidu in Estonia, and we were blown away by the top tier Ipas they served us. The connection between us was so strong that after only 2 months we were welcoming our friends from Finland to taste and select barrels with the intention of releasing our first collaboration. From that morning of hard work this black pearl was born! Reminiscence is a complex and silky Imperial Stout that was aged in Maple Syrup ex-Bourbon barrels and further matured in coconut from Sri Lanka, cocoa nibs from Ghana and vanilla beans from Uganda. We are really proud of this one and we just hope you like it as much as we do!

Sweetish, syrupy and slightly roasty with some vanilla, coconut, cocoa and hints of woody barrel. A bit heavy but tasty.

A bottle I swerved at the last tasting coz I already 'ad one, innit? A near opaque dark brown beer, small dark tan head. Smooth airy palate, a mild dryness, good fine minerally carbonation. Smooth dark malts, a good creamy dark chocolate. Good coconut, sweet. A little alcohol spice. Smooth soft coffee. Some rum and bourbon barrel like rich ripe fruits. Smooth finish brings a little alcohol burn. Very good stuff. For the most part, belies its hefty abv and delivers a rich and rewarding Impy smorgasbord of goodness.
