"Pours black with espresso beans, licorice, molasses, and black cardamom notes that give way to a feeling of self loathing, burnt opportunities and self-loathing."
Tasting Notes:
Pours dark, dark brown to black with a milk chocolate colored head, two fingers deep. Smells of significant roasted barley and chocolate malt. Starts with some roasted coffee tones followed by milk chocolate that gives way to bitter dark chocolate notes that wrap up nice and spicy dry. A solid medium bodied stout that has some really nice malt notes. What really makes this stout worth seeking out its excellent finish, thanks to left hand's generous hop additions. this reads: "volume 1." So i'm assuming this may be an annual release. Volume 2. Russian Imperial perhaps? please? yeah?....
