Blackout Brewing Entropy - French Brandy BA
Imperial Stout 11 º
This Imperial Stout presents a decadent sensory profile shaped by its time in French Brandy barrels. The base provides an intense foundation of bittersweet chocolate, espresso, and black licorice, while the barrel aging introduces sophisticated notes of toasted oak, vanilla, and dried stone fruits like apricot and raisin. The 11% ABV manifests as a smooth, well-integrated warmth rather than a sharp burn, enhancing the vinous, port-like character often found in aged examples. Hints of caramelized sugar and dark honey intertwine with a firm roasted bitterness, resulting in a complex, harmonious masterpiece that balances rich malt depth with elegant, spirit-forward nuances.
Appearance. Jet black and opaque (40 SRM). A dense, deep tan head with moderate retention that leaves thick lacing. High viscosity is apparent through visible legs on the glass.
Aroma. High intensity with a rich blend of bittersweet chocolate, heavy espresso, and black currants. The French Brandy barrel provides prominent esters of dried plum and fig, complemented by subtle vanilla and toasted oak. Low hop aroma.
Taste. Intense initial impression of dark cocoa and roasted grain. The mid-palate reveals complex brandy-derived notes of vinous fruit and charred wood. Firm bitterness provides balance against a moderate residual sweetness. The finish is long and warming with a bittersweet aftertaste of coffee and oak.
Mouthfeel. Full-bodied and exceptionally chewy with a velvety, luscious texture. Carbonation is low to moderate. Smooth, noticeable alcohol warmth is present without being sharp or solventy.
