This is a nice take on the classic, yet ever-evolving, Speedway Stout. You dont get much flavor in the way of the 25% barrel-aged but I suspect that it adds to the richness of this beer, of which there is plenty. The nibs and vanilla sort of cancel each other out and the raspberry really shines through. Unlike a lot of other raspberry stouts, this one isnt overly sweet, in fact it has just a hint of tartness which plays well with the coffee/roasty aspects of the beer. Tasty beer.
