Coming from the same brew as Tempest (Imperial Stout), Calm Before the Storm gives beer drinkers a very unique chance to try two completely different beers that originally began as one. After transferring the wort for Tempest into the kettle, our brewers ran hot water over the same grain bed to collect the remaining residual sugars. These 'second runnings' were then fermented with a different yeast strain and hopped with Styrian Goldings to give us Calm Before the Storm. Beginning with 9.5 degrees Plato and finishing at 3.6, this beer comes in at 3.2% ABV – a far cry from the storm at 10% – but once you taste the cocoa and rye and experience its pleasant noble hop aroma, you'll understand where she came from.

    The beer pours a solid dark brown colour with a thin ring for a head. Aroma is roasted malt, molasses, coffee, and chocolate. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is dark chocolate and coffee with hints of herbal hops. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with average carbonation. A rich tasting beer with notes or coffee and cocoa.
