Imperial Stout
Cerveja Artesanal Burguesa

Poured into a BrewDog snifter.

A: Body is pitch black showing a medium high body density. When pouring, no head was formed unless it was caused by a more hefty pour.
S: The aroma is very good with notes of vanilla, milk chocolate, roasted coffee and a very slight hint of blended whisky.
T: The taste starts off very smooth and sweet with the milky chocolate notes coming forward, showing a slightest vanilla profile before jumping into a high bitterness tone that's exaggerated but not bad. The bitterness of the roasted malts, the hops and the wood used here compounds to a 80 IBU beer that I feel is too much here and could be a lot more drinkable if those IBUs were downgraded by a few units.
M: Body is high. Carbonation is medium. Alcohol is present and felt easily. Bitterness is too high. The finish midly resembles the finishing mouthfeel of a dram of whisky.
O: Overall, it smells a lot better than it tastes but it still tastes good, being a very drinkable beer with yet tons of room for improvement.

Pretty solid imperial stout aged on whiskey oak. You dont get any semblance of wood or barrel or even whiskey for that matter, but the beer is mellow and smooth despite its ABV. At 10%, this will out a little pep in your step when compared to the normal percentages of most beers in the region. If you can track it down, treat yourself to a bottle.
