Expanding on our coffee stout series utilizing beans from small roasters, comes our newest (and biggest) endeavour: An Imperial Stout with Coffee. Don't ask us how we came up with the name.
We gave this one an extra long boil to concentrate all those fermentables, and dosed it with a 50/50 split of Ethiopian Amaro Natural and Bourbon Barrel Aged Ethiopian Hambela Natural beans from Modern Times.

The only stouts I love are the ones with coffee, or aged in bourbon barrels, or having added vanilla. Preferably all three. This one has the coffee part.
Looks great (albeit a tad bit dark) and smells perfect! But the taste is lacking body (watery) and is sweet and too bitter at the same time. Not sure why, but Peche Mortel this isn't. Boozy on the tongue as well, which makes it a bit sour for a lingering time.
Good, but not great.
