Day Block 4th Anniversary Russian Imperial Stout. 11.2% ABV, 55 IBU, Day Block Brewing Company, Minneapolis, MN.Dark, dark black color, slim, soon-gone brown head, fully opaque, looking the part.
In the nose: pumpernickel, chocolate and molasses. Richness aplenty here. Quite nice.
In the mouth: vanilla. cocoa. espresso. slight cherry. Raisins, dates, figs, etc. Rich, full, major, ultra, bigness. All that. Big time bigness. I thoroughly dug it.
Cheers to four years and the tapping of this king stout to celebrate our Anniversary! We got together with FEW and brewed a chocolate forward Russian Imperial Stout. Barrel aged in Rye and Bourbon Barrels brings out a fantastic aroma of fresh dates, vanilla and chocolate.
