This Motör-oil rich stout was brewed in June of 2014 and aged for ten months in well-turned oak barrels. LEMMY’s wort (heh) was crafted using roasted wheat instead of roasted barley, which offers a very full, rich body but softer and more rounded roast complexity. Tannins, oxidation, and oak flavors subtly complement the malt notes of caramel, bitter chocolate, and espresso-roast, finishing with noticeable fruitiness. Black as pitch, its extended finish has notes of cacao, subtle oak and vanillins, and just a snaggletooth of tartness from Lactobacillus and Brettanomyces.

On tap at Russell house tavern in Cambridge, smell beguiled a beer that continued to speak throughout the entire sip. At the same time hearty and satisfying while finishing tart and clean. This one will fly under the radar but I'd put it up against tart of darkness or any another inoculated barrel aged dark beer for the crown. Did everything is ever want.
