Pours obsidian black with a minimal (to be kind) dark tan head that arrives late and flees early. It is easy to see this is a big ol’ imperial stout. The nose is resplendent with roasty char, rich milk chocolate and vanilla, and spicy chile aromas - and the barrel.

Do not forget the barrel.

The taste is a decadent amalgamation of the rich milk chocolate, roasty char, vanilla, spicy chiles, and the warming barrel flavor at the very back of the palate. This is executed exceptionally well - it could venture into cloying territory, but the chiles, char, and barrel don’t allow that. Absolutely delicious.

The mouthfeel is rich, decadent, creamy, and just generally awesome - this is WAAAAAY too easy to drink at 14% ABV. Wax Wings is a hidden gem.
