Beer Name: Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout (#133)
Style: Russian Imperial Stout
Country: USA
Size: 10 oz draft
ABV: 10.0
From the book:
Three mashes are used to brew each batch of this Russian Imperial Stout from Brooklyn Brewery. It's because of this that they achieve the deep dark chocolate flavor found in this beer. Full bodied and slick in texture, Black Chocolate Stout smells like chocolate, espresso beans and prunes. It has a nice warming feeling due to the 10% ABV. A faint herbal hops flavor can be found around all the chocolate and roasted flavors.
This was my first time trying a Russian Imperial Stout, and it was pretty outstanding. Nice and dark and quite smooth. This would be the perfect beer to help take the Northeastern Ohio chill off at the end of a long day.
9/10
That looks amazing! Please tell me it's on draft.
ReplyDeleteIt is, but only for this month I believe, and only at certain Lizards (Fairlawn and Mentor for sure).
