Enjoyed watching the USA win their world cup match today. Now watching Scotland versus Morocco. It's Friday so why not have a powerful 13.5% Prairie imperial Stout. I know this is going to be good. Almost non-existent head. Looks like syrup coming out of the bottle. Lots of flavor in that aroma. Bourbon and dark chocolate. Leaves a tan coating around the glass as it swirls. Heavy soft texture with an alcohol burn from the first. Sweet Hershey's dark chocolate, strong hit of bourbon modified slightly with oak barrel, and finally, finally toward the middle a touch of hazelnut. I love hazelnut, put it in my coffee each morning. I'm mostly getting it in the finish but early in the beer the bourbon alcohol overwhelms it. But that's okay. Heavy beers like this are my favorite and I slowly sip them so I get all of the pleasure in that finish before it's time for the next one. It only takes a little to go a long way on this brew.

Awesome thicc and chewey bba stout. Lots of marshmallows, hazelnuts and toasted coconut, this stout is very nutty and sweet, that hides the big abv quite well.

Cranberry and nutmeg on the nose. Ok, little tart on the buds. I'm getting cranberries, ginger, nutmeg, and something else I can't put a finger on. It's good but not my thing.

Apple and mango on the nose. Apple, blood orange, and a little mango on the tongue. Not sour. This is a breakfast beverage. Good, but not my thing. Another one of the brews I received on my birthday.

Musta, todella paksu ja öljyinen. Paksun marjaisaa tummasuklaista ja kirsikkaista sävyä tuoksussa. Kookos ei juuri tuoksu. Supermakean siirappinen kärki paisulla tummasuklaalla, hieman kirsikkaisuutta päälle. Vaniljaisen makea runko lisää suklaata ja aavistus kookosta päälle. Jälkimaussa mukavan tummasuklainen ja vaniljainen maailma pienellä kookoksella.

Todella pehmeä, suklaata ja paahdetta mukana. Sopivan makea ja samettinen.

This stout from Artisan ales is really good if you like mint. I like to mix up my stouts with different flavors and this minty stout is no exception, a really good stout if you like mint.
