"The first sip is soft and inviting: a dark whisper of liquorice that slowly opens up on the tongue. A warm peppery touch follows, like a light touch that lingers just a little longer than expected. The caramel melts smoothly through it, round and syrupy, as if the beer gently envelops you. The sweet echo of sweets, dried red fruit and a hint of citrus moves playfully through the aroma, warm and slightly tingling. Meanwhile, chocolate and mocha provide that deep, velvety layer that gives the whole an almost enveloping character. It feels compact and full — a beer that doesn't rush, but slowly draws closer. The alcohol-warming glow builds like a calm, sensual heat rising from the chest. Spicy and piquant notes follow, subtle but present, as if the beer knows exactly when to challenge and when to soften. The finish is long and smooth: sweet at first, then elegantly drier, a flavour that lingers like a lingering touch."

"Gingerbread Man is a full-bodied stout of 12%, brewed with our German friends from Fuerst Wiacek. Its rich and warming notes of spicy gingerbread, sweet vanilla and almond from the tonka bean are topped off with a deep malty base reminiscent of dark chocolate and caramel. A dessert beer with a spicy, wintery twist."

"After a successful first collaboration with Brouwerij Lost, we're doing it again, but this time as a thick stout. Ready to Crumble is a liquid Kirsch-Streuselkuchen: rich chocolate, creamy vanilla, Amarena cherry, almond and crumbly biscuit. Every sip is a dessert in your glass, full-bodied, sweet and fruity."

Black Albert & Marius, Islay peated whisky barrel aged for five years

Dark Quadrupel. 80 EBC; 27 IBU

"Last year, we collaborated with Daorovida from Brazil on not one, but two projects! The second one was left to mature in barrels for a year. It became an exuberant 13% Double Stout with smoked peppers from the Amazon rainforest and copious amounts of maple syrup. This beer was aged in Cognac barrels and is stronger in pepper but milder in maple syrup than her softer sister aged in Maple Syrup barrels."

"Cocoa & Palo Santo Stout"

"An ultra-rich dark beer base (original density of 1.160) combined with tried-and-tested additions: tonka bean, freshly roasted coffee locally from Café Bun Montpellier and cold brewed, and vanilla."

"This second installment of our Imperial Stouts diptych celebrates coconut in all its facets, with a double dose of fresh, as well as toasted, coconut flakes. While delicious on its own, it was designed to blend with "Black Orchid" (double vanilla) to create a cohesive and decadent experience."

"Following the success of each release of "Sensation Pure," our Imperial Stout with Chocolate and Salted Caramel, we decided to brew a more accessible version! Introducing "Mini Sensation Pure"! The idea remains the same: a concentrated burst of chocolate and caramel indulgence, but this time with only 6% alcohol (we've cut it in half). Enjoy responsibly, though..."

"The first part of our Imperial Stouts diptych, this is an ode to indulgence. Vanilla is present in double the dose, taking the pastry profile to its peak. Dense, dark, and captivating, it stands on its own but reveals a completely different side when blended with its sister, "Dark Ivory" (double coconut)."

"Meet the dark beer that goes down as easily as a lager. Norwegian Nitro Stout is a clean, dry Irish-style stout that offers depth without weighing you down. Brewed with subtle roast and espresso notes and finished with a silky smooth and creamy texture. Full in character, effortlessly drinkable."

"The second chapter of our new barrel favourite here in Rackhouse, Finnish Rye Whisky. These barrels have been home to this grand imperial stout for 20 months, imparting a depth of flavour and aroma of rich cacao, mild tobacco and a firm but balanced spirit character. A limited-edition Imperial Stout straight Off The Rack."

"Miniature in size, big on flavour. Our choc egg stout blends chocolate malt, oats and wheat with lashings of rich chocolate and vanilla to create a Vault City twist on a classic sweet treat."

"Milk Stout with Pistachio & Honeycomb. Our favourite Milk Stout returns; a tried and tested grain bill using a blend of Crystal and Roasted malts, with Cinder Toffee added hot and Pistachio added after fermentation. Expect roasted nuttiness & sweet marzipan on the nose with a woody rum character & a warming, decadent body. Nutty, sweet & silky/Contains lactose."

"We sent our “Ours” to hibernate for several months in bourbon barrels. Time to refine and take on beautiful vanilla and chocolate notes. Then we added cocoa beans and vanilla to lift aromatics up. A real treat!"

"Bourbon-barrel aged imperial stout with fresh orange peel added before packaging."

Smoked Black Lager

"Vulture is a striking Black Barrel Series imperial stout, crafted from a blend of barrels of different ages. The components have been aged in bourbon and brandy barrels for 18 months before being blended. Thanks to careful blending and extended aging, Vulture sinks its talons into the flesh around the bones, stripping away the most ruthless parts."

"Our latest imperial stout was inspired by the sweet taste of a certain chocolate caramel egg... With each sip there’s a velvety texture among layers of intense chocolate and smooth caramel. Through an extended boil we’ve dialled those Maillard reactions into overdrive, encapsulating the unique gooey goodness and caramelised sweetness in a decadent dessert stout."

"Some flavour combinations are timeless, like tangy raspberries and decadent dark chocolate. There’s an instant spark. So, we’ve paired the two with a layered malt bill of Pale and Biscuit malts, Crystal DRC and roasted Caraffa Special III, plus Chocolate Wheat & Oats, for a rich, full-bodied imperial stout you’ll fall head over heels for."

"RUBICON is a massive, velvety stout that hits hard from the first sip. Waves of roasted peanut, toasted hazelnut, and deep cocoa roll across the palate. Dark, rich, and dangerously smooth. 12% of pure liquid darkness."

"Imperial coffee stout with vanilla + Uganda Rwenzori Sump Coffee beans."

"There is nothing quite like the comforting aroma that fills the home when baking with family. Inspired by late nights in the kitchen with Mom. Goose Island employee Paul Spiller sought to capture that sweet moment in this year’s newest member of the Bourbon County Brand Stout family. 2024 Bourbon County Brand Macaroon Stout is an imperial stout aged for a full year in bourbon barrels before adding rich cocoa nibs, sweet candied ginger and toasted coconut. This decadent stout is an homage to the flavors of homemade coconut macaroons with a twist of nostalgia."

"Bourbon County Special #4 Stout is an oatmeal stout variant of our original Bourbon County Stout recipe, also aged in bourbon barrels, that uses crystal oats to add a nutty character and a smooth mouthfeel. After barrel aging, we added Intelligentsia Coffee, both their cold coffee and single origin coffee beans from Ethiopia, called “Metad Buku,” to bring out a pleasant fruity coffee character. Lastly bourbon barrel-aged maple syrup from Bissell Maple Farm in Ohio is added which provides complexity to the nutty oats and coffee to round out the flavors, ultimately reminiscent of your breakfast ‘special’ at the local diner."

"We rigorously selected our best Imperial Stout Bourbon barrels to blend them into a pure blend with no additives. This showcases the very best that Fauve has to offer in terms of IS BBA. The aging process lasted 25 months in Bourbon barrels."

"This beer is a blend of an Imperial Stout aged for 30 months in French Whisky barrels and a young Barley White aged for 4 months in Bourbon barrels. After blending, we infused beautiful vanilla pods to bring a rich, smooth flavor to this blend!"

"This beer is a blend of an Imperial Stout aged for 30 months in French Whisky barrels with a younger Imperial Pastry Stout, aged in Bourbon barrels. After blending, we created a delicious and comforting twist with a Cocoa and Tonka Bean finish!"

"Stout - Imperial / Double Pastry - SHAKE BEFORE POURING!!! This is the BA version of our collab with Ophiussa. Contains a shitload of pistachio ice cream, coconut cream and condensed milk."
