Beer Name: Thirsty Dog Siberian Night (#230)
Style: Imperial Stout
Country: USA (Akron!)
Size: 16 oz draft
ABV: 9.0
From the book:
This great example of an Imperial Stout has an enormous flavor profile. Sweet coffee, dark fruit, licorice and walnuts are just a few of the flavors to be noticed, mingled with a slight bitterness that is notable from start to finish. Siberian Night was the 2005 Great American Beer Festival Gold medal winner in the Imperial Stout category.
This year there is a monthly Thirsty Dog beer on tap. A (very) local brewery just down the road in Akron, so being a former Zip I had to represent (or something like that)! Beer that is dark as night and full of flavor, this is another one to come back to in the future. The licorice and coffee flavors were most noticeable to me, and I thought the went together well. Notice how afraid Adam's beer looks in the background...
8/10
