Packaged on 2/03/2020. (Purchased 5/26.20)

I do not know how to say the name of this beer, but that doesn't stop me from drinking it.

Solid blackness, complete opacity, rich, roasted tan head. Looking good.

In the nose: Fruity notes hit first, before the arrival of cocoa and coffee. Sweet fruity feel stays strong over all. Very promising, very interesting.

In the mouth: Dense. Thick. Rich, Viscous, Delicious. Massive malt, chewy chocolate, with the mezcal barrel hold forth over all. Incredibly complex. Universes collide in the consumption of this one. Wow upon wow. It's a great blend between the traditional Russian Imperial Stout flavors, and the mix with the mezcal.

Top notch. Good Imperial Stout and you can drink it.

Imperial Stout featuring rich roasted chocolate malts was aged in our Mezcal barrels
