Derailleur Brew Works RiVER RUNs THRU IT
This Imperial Stout presents a complex, smoky interpretation of the style, dominated by the interplay of smoked malt and light-roast coffee. At 12.5% ABV, it exudes a sophisticated whiskey-like character, enhanced by oak-derived vanillin and structural tannins that temper the significant alcohol presence. While rich, the palate is surprisingly dry, accented by a delicate berry-like acidity that lifts the roasted depth. The finish is remarkably clean for such a potent beer, leaving a lingering, chest-warming glow. It is a harmonious marriage of wood, smoke, and dark grain that rewards slow, contemplative sipping and provides a deep, immersive sensory experience.
Appearance. Jet black and opaque (SRM 40+). Pours with a thick, deep tan head with moderate retention and noticeable legs on the glass due to high alcohol and viscosity.
Aroma. High intensity. Bold smoked malt and light-roast coffee lead the profile, supported by subtle dark berry esters. Nuanced notes of oak, vanilla, and a spirit-like whiskey presence emerge as the beer warms.
Taste. Initial impact of smoky, roasted grain and bittersweet chocolate. The mid-palate reveals tart berry fruitiness and woody oak tannins. Moderate bitterness is well-integrated and supports a dry, clean finish with a lingering aftertaste of whiskey and vanillin.
Mouthfeel. Full-bodied and velvety with a chewy texture. Carbonation is moderate. Significant alcohol warmth is present and noticeable but smooth rather than sharp. Light oak astringency provides a structured finish.
