Oddside Imperial Mayan Stout. With Coffee,
Cinnamon, Nutmeg, and Habaneroes.
10 % ABV, 32 IBU.
OddSide Ales, Grand Haven, MI.
Absolute blackness, complete opacity, full, rich brown head on top.
In the nose: Heat hits first, followed by the cocoa. Coffee comes in next, and it's an immense mess of malt.
In the mouth: Peppery heat again leads the charge, with coffee and cocoa right behind. Big, bold body, massive malt presence, dwarfs any hops in the house. Hot, spicy, rich and delicious. Lays long on the palate, spice never quits. Alcohol takes it's time, but begins to grow and dominate. Tasty, tasty stuff. Yum a dum dum.
Imperial version of our Mayan Mocha Stout. Inspired by Mexican hot chocolate. It is carefully blended with Dutch chocolate coffee, cinnamon, nutmeg, and habaneros which will leave you with the perfect balance of chocolate and heat.
