We teamed up with our friends at Vitamin Sea Brewing from Massachusetts! A nod to our first brew together, 'Early Departure’. For our Origins of Darkness take on this beer, we brewed an Imperial Stout, distinct with chocolate and coffee flavours. We then aged the brew on Collective Arts 'Rite & Ritual' coffee beans for 3 months. We added lactose, demerara sugar and aged the beer in dark rum barrels. Finally, Speculoos (airplane cookies!) and almonds were added. We hope this Imperial Stout inspires you to travel one day soon!

    Part of their 2021 Origin of Darkness 4-pack. Dark brown colour with some copper-ruby highlights. The head is frothy-creamy, light mocha-coloured, long lasting and creating some creamy lacing. Alcoholic nose with the roasted malt base, sweet cookies-lactose, chocolate malts, coffee and hints of almonds, dark fruits. The taste is sweet, but not as rich as one would expect from the aromas. Chocolate cookie flavours dipped into coffee for a morning breakfast. Thick, but not overly mouthfeel with a slick, lightly oily smooth feel. Enough hops to cut the lingering. The alcohol is better-balanced in the mouth, and the warming is light. An interesting dessert Imperial Stout with lots going on.
