From the limited-release Summit Union Series, we’re proud to offer Rebellion Stout. Single-hopped with a new UK dwarf hop named after a Celtic queen who led the fight against the Romans. Brewed with the quintessential Stout malt from fiercely independent County Cork, Ireland. Loosely based on a recipe from 1896 taken from the archives of an old Cork brewery.

Pours dark black with a small tan head that had good retention before settling to a thin cap. Massive amount of lacing is left down the glass.
Extremely hoppy aroma. Boadicea hops reminds me a bit of the more familiar Chinook hop. Pine, herbal, and earth. To go along with the hop aroma is heavily roasted malt with notes of wood smoke. A hint of alcohol as well.
The big malt bill balances the hoppy character of this stout. Export stout strength indeed. Roasted malt combines well with the earthy hop flavor. A real savory flavor. Hints of pine, smoke, and a bit of dark fruit. Some alcohol warmth in the finish. On the extreme bitterness end of the spectrum.
Big bodied and nicely carbonated. Creamy and soft texture contradicts the harshness of the bitterness in the flavor.
Definitely a big, bold stout. Lovers of sweeter stouts will hate this beer. But I liked it and a nice opportunity to try a new hop variety. This beer featured the highlighted hop better than the previous example in the Union Series.

Pours a dark brown body, flavor has smoky wood, bit of charred flavor and lots of bittersweet chocolate. Nice long finish, very nice indeed.

12 oz. bottle poured into a snifter.
Appearance - Black body. Nice dark khaki head. Excellent lacing.
Smell - Roasted malt. Some milk chocolate.
Taste - Dark roasted malt. Coffee. Deep caramel. Some nuttiness. Lingering milk chocolate flavor.
Mouthfeel - Medium body, maybe a bit light for a "big" stout. Creamy. Medium carbonation.
Overall - Quite drinkable because of its body. Flavors are pretty good if unremarkable.
