Modist Barrel Aged 32 Teeth with Cacao Nibs and Vanilla.
Imperial Chocolate Stout aged in bourbon barrels with
Ghana cacao nibs and Madagascar vanilla beans.
11.5 % ABV. Modist Brewing, Minneapolis, MN.

Black as night, deeply opaque, rich brown head that leaves in a minute.

In the nose: Huge bourbon. Vast chocolate. Intense dark malt flavors. Smoke, char, whiskey a go go.

In the mouth: Big sweetness, massive sweet, gigantic chocolate, fudge, and a river of vanilla swims on in. Thick stuff, rich, viscous, mighty. Immense. Just about overbearing. Incredible, to a fault. Amazingly, bourbon is covered with chocolate, smothered, even, escaping through the edges. Very thick, very rich.

Yeah, pretty much too rich, too sweet...don't give me diabetes! (Thanks to Dave A. for the bottle.)

Side by side with the cacao bib version on tap. The white chocolate works much better with this beer. It’s smoother, shows more bourbon and vanilla. Creamy texture. Full bodied. The barrels are very warming and snow a lot in this one. The cacao bib version seems slightly more roasty and is a chocolate bomb. The barrels come through a little, but only in the finish. Fun side by side and it’s crazy to see how much changing one of the adjuncts affects the beer.
