Forager Brewery Syncopation
Imperial Stout 13.8 º
This massive Imperial Stout exhibits the profound depth of a twenty-four-month double-barrel journey. Initial aging in house-aged maple syrup barrels provides a subtle, woody sweetness that interweaves with charred oak and spicy vanilla notes derived from Riff and Blanton's bourbon barrels. Expect a decadent sensory profile dominated by dark chocolate, espresso, and rich molasses. The absence of adjuncts allows the pure expression of roasted malts and spirit-soaked wood to take center stage, offering nuances of dried figs and toasted marshmallow. It is a harmonious, slow-sipping experience where time and patience manifest as a complex, velvety masterpiece.
Appearance. Jet black and opaque (40+ SRM). A dense, dark tan head shows moderate retention, leaving thick lacing and visible legs on the glass due to high alcohol viscosity.
Aroma. High intensity with a rich blend of bittersweet chocolate, roasted coffee, and heavy bourbon influence. Significant notes of vanilla, toasted oak, and a faint hint of maple syrup. Low esters suggest dark fruits like raisins and prunes.
Taste. Initial impact of intense roasted malt and dark cocoa. The mid-palate reveals layers of bourbon-soaked oak, caramel, and a delicate maple woodiness. Moderate bitterness from roasted grains provides balance against the high residual sweetness. The finish is long and warming with lingering notes of black licorice and charred wood.
Mouthfeel. Full to very full-bodied with a chewy, luscious, and velvety texture. Carbonation is low, enhancing the creamy mouthfeel. Noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth provides a smooth, glowing sensation.
