Today we have the Second Anniversary Ale from the brewery with the big feet - Clown Shoes. This stout is darker than the entrance to Dracula’s tomb with a creamy head the color of a fresh whittled hickory stake. Big aroma on this brew with notes of dark fruit and malts. Deep smokey flavor - hints of raisins, fudge, malts, and roasted coffee. Medium body with minimal carbonation. Boozy finish with lingering notes of semi-sweet fig, black licorice, and charcoal.
Great Imperial Stout. I loved the smokiness of this brew. With 10% ABV, this would be a good brew to invite a neighbor over to share. But on second thought, if you only see your neighbor after sunset, it would probably be best to leave them “uninvited”. Might not be a bad idea to start a garlic garden along the fence line as well. One can never be too careful during these troubled times.
Pairings: During the daylight, beneath a crucifix, with super soaker full of holy water nearby.
Cheers!!!
