A 500ml bottle, 2016 vintage. Poured into a snifter glass.

Appearance: Dark dark brown to black in colour with a big two finger tanned head that had pretty good retention and eventually settled to a thin layer, while leaving some nice lacing.

Aroma: Light roast, cocoa, leather, brett, oak, lightly vinous and a touch herbal.

Taste: What you’d expect from the aroma, light roast, cocoa, funky, brett, tart, vinous, and oak.

Mouthfeel: Creamy, medium to full bodied with soft carbonation.

Overall: Nice aroma and flavours although the Imperial Stout parts are probably overpowered by the brett and vinous aspects. This is really drinkable but I’m unsure I’d still call this an Imperial Stout.

This one was not what I was expecting. It's a bit of a sour stout, it didn't explode so I assume it isn't infected. The sour/wine notes are over powering the stout, I'm honestly struggling to get any of the roasted malt. I do get a bitter chocolate/hop finish.
