Notes:
Morning Vibes is our Russian Imperial Stout with barrel-aged maple syrup and Sump coffee. We start with our imperial stout recipe we have named Vibes, which lays the groundwork for so much of our stout repertoire, and finish it with our own Side Project barrel-aged maple syrup and coffee from our friends at Sump. This maple syrup comes to us from Vermont, and we then barrel-age it in a bourbon barrel here at Side Project.

Had on tap. Shimmering oily black body, lighter brown ring. Smells strongly of coffee and dark chocolate with maple and roasted malt backing. Taste is coffee and maple forward with dark chocolate and roasted malt supporting with a hint of bourbon booze. Feel is smooth and coffee makes an impact, but lighter for a RIS, sneaky frothy on the finish. It's a good breakfast stout but better than FBS? Nah, hype got its hands on this one

2021 version (bottled 5/20/21) poured into a tulip on 7/7/22. Excellent blend of maple and coffee.

2021 Bottle.
The nose hits with maple syrup and roasted coffee beans. The palate has a great richness from the maple while the coffee contrasts and tones down the sweetness with bitter, roasty coffee. While I would’ve loved a touch more coffee, this was great.

750 mL bottle. Inky black. Smells of maple and rich coffee. Tastes pretty sweet. Sweet coffee, maple, rich chocolate, roasted malt. Heavy, sweet. Really sweet, but very tasty all the same.
