A banging Imperial Stout inspired by the flavours of Italy and brewed with figs, star anise, Sicilian blood oranges, and cooked grape must. Taste: Strong vinous notes with a prickly, rounded anise character quickly following. Parma violets and rich sweet caramelised fig notes mingle with the decadent malt character and delicate sweet citrus. As the beer warms the taste morphs even more, bouncing between sweet and spice, leaving behind a well rounded fruity body. Appearance: Jet-black with a crema like head. Nose: Raisins, coffee, and dark malts - the vibe of tannins jumps out before being overwhelmed once more by fruity notes. Malts: Pale malt, Munich malt, Carafa 2 Special, Special B, Chocolate malt, Cara 300, Oats, Chocolate rye Hops: Magnum, Northern Brewer, Figs, Blood oranges, Star anise, Cooked grape must OG 30.5° ; FG 9° ; IBU 40
