Collaboration with our friends from Werk Force Brewing. We combined our imperial stout recipes and conditioned on Cinnamon, Almond & Vanilla to create a "Bear Claw" donut inspired stout.

No canned date. Drank 9/27/25.
Pour is jet black. A fizzy tight cap of deep brown foam fades quickly to a little ring around the glass.
Nose is vanilla, almond, roasted malt
Taste follows - upfront vanilla, chocolate, roasted malt, almond, I don't get a ton of cinnamon.
mouthfeel is quite thick, low carbonation.

Overall tasty. Of the variants - only one i've had - i don't know that "bear claws" would be my number one choice. It seems to be in line with your "standard" big, over the top stout with a ton of stuff thrown in.

On tap at More Brewing, Huntley, Illinois.
Almost black, small brown head. Great aromas, vanilla and cinnamon, unfortunately those great smells did nothing for the flavor. Smooth, thick and a bit "sticky". This was listed as a BA Impy Stout, they did not list all the "added junk", if they did, I would have passed on it.

Probably the blackest beer I’ve ever poured. Modest tan head. Very pretty aroma: lots of vanilla, caramel, cinnamon & alcohol. Sweet tasting. Flavors: vanilla, cinnamon, ripe dark fruit, caramel, roasted malt & alcohol. Moderately thick with good carbonation & a fair amount of alcohol heat. Overall: certainly not like any donut that I’ve had but it’s delicious.
