Collaboration with The Open Bottle. Santa's favorite break-time snack just got a little bit sweeter! This decadent imperial milk stout is brewed with brown sugar, chocolate chips, cinnamon, and vanilla. If you're feelin' jolly, take a sip and feel the warm chocolatey sensations as you melt into the holiday spirit.

Classic look and smell for a dessert stout. Thick and chewy, with notes of gingerbread, roast, and dark chocolate.
Good, great packaging, but not in the elite milk stout category (eg Double Dunk, Lugene).

Love the smell of this one. The cinnamon, brown sugar and vanilla all mix well together, giving the aromas nostalgia of grandma's cookies. Taste is more muddled, with the malt and booze being a little strong for the delicate flavors from the smell, but still enjoyable. Bodied is medium with some dry spice textures to go with dark smooth malts

Taste: Big chocolate, malty, lactose, ginger, vanilla, cinnamon, and smooth creamy finish. Bold sweet cocoa and boozy nose. Black, opaque, dark tall, tan head with a stick lattice of lace. Full body. Pour over ice cream.
