2018 This Imperial Stout was brewed with 275kg of cacao husks for a rich, luscious, chocolate flavour, before conditioning in Jim Beam barrels for six weeks – long enough for micro oxygenation and barrel flavours to enrich the beer, but short enough to avoid tannin and oak dryness. Aroma Hops: Tettnanger Bittering Hops: Pilgrim Alpha CO2 Extract Malts: Golden Promise, Caramalt, Pilsner Malt, Pale Chocolate Malt, Dextrose Monohydrate, Roasted Wheat, Chocolate Malt Yeast: JW Lees, WLP001 2019 Take your time to unravel the many layers of flavour in this deep and decadent Imperial Stout. It was brewed with cacao husks to provide rich chocolate dessert flavours, before 16 months in bourbon barrels helped to add further complexity and a warming, boozy kick. Strong and luscious, this beer is meant for sipping, making it ideal for sharing with friends or saving for a special occasion. ALC 13% VOL 375ML Aroma & Flavour: Chocolate ganache, treacle, molasses, vanilla and roasted malt accents Body: Rich, silky and sweet with a tannic finish Aftertaste: Burnt fruitcake, cocoa, light soy sauce and oak with a bourbon kick
