Son of a Baptist is an 8% ABV imperial stout. It is not barrel aged like its father, Big Bad Baptist; instead its flavor profile was designed to highlight the complex and often unique flavors of small batch coffees. Instead of sourcing a coffee that would play well in a beer we sought out creative and innovative roasters, then asked them which beans they’re passionate about. Each resulting release of Son of a Baptist is widely different depending on the coffee selected. Some are fruity and sweet with notes of jam and chocolate, others are rich and earthy with a big roasted finish. Each limited release will return to the Roaster’s home market where the beer and the coffee can be sampled side by side.

355 ml can, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. Source of coffee is not specified. ABV is 8.0%. Pitch black colour, moderate to small tan head. Aroma of coffee, roast malts and cocoa. The flavour is not too sweet, but has distinct notes of the same elements as the aroma. Moderate hops.

Pours about as black as a moonless night with a moderately foamy, fizzy head with nice lacing. Coffee leads the charge with hints of chocolate and roasted malt. Medium body and fairly sweet. The chocolate takes over the lead as the beer warms. Good beer, but nothing that makes it stand out from the crowd.

22 oz bottle, release #14 - Hotbox. Pours dark brown with a big rocky light tan head that retains well and leaves a little lacing.
The aroma is roasted grain with a lot of rich chocolate and some roast coffee in the finish.
The flavor is heavy, slightly ashy, roast with some sweet rich chocolate and a little acidic coffee. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with smooth carbonation.
Overall, mostly heavy ashy roast and sweet rich chocolate. Would be better if better balanced with more coffee.
