Modist Blueberry Second Breffix

 Modist Blueberry Second Breffix. Imperial breakfast stout w/ blueberry maple syrup, Wildflyer coffee, brown sugar, vanilla bean & oat milk. 


10 % ABV, Modist Brewing, Minneapolis, Minnesota. 

Solid blackness, completely opaque, under a large, creamy tanned head. 

In the nose: coffee and vanilla, roasty and bittersweet. Blueberries creeping in. 

In the mouth: surprisingly smooth and sweet. Berries are shining bright on the palate. Bitter meets sweet and roasty malt rises over all. There’s maple surup here, too, right? Swallowed up by berries? 

A complex and richly rewarding beverage that is making an excellent nightcap on this frigid night.
