Imperial Stout 14.2 º

FrauGruber Brewing

Night Flight is a decadent, modern take on the Imperial Stout, delivering a lush sensory experience defined by its bold 14.2% ABV and luxurious adjuncts. The aroma is dominated by the floral, aromatic sweetness of Tahitian Vanilla and the nutty, toasted richness of Roasted Coconut Flakes. Pours jet black with a dense, mocha head and visible viscosity. On the palate, a silky, full-bodied texture is enhanced by lactose, softening the deep bittersweet chocolate and espresso roast. The finish is long and velvety, carrying a steady alcohol warmth that balances the indulgent sweetness of coconut and vanilla.

Appearance. SRM 40+; jet black and completely opaque. A small, creamy dark tan head shows moderate retention, leaving oily legs on the glass as it recedes.

Aroma. High intensity; rich scents of bittersweet chocolate and espresso are layered with prominent floral Tahitian Vanilla and toasted macaroons from Roasted Coconut Flakes. Subtle dark fruit esters of plum and raisin hide behind a sweet, creamy lactose note and a clean, warming alcohol presence.

Taste. Deeply impactful; initial flavors of dark cocoa and toasted coconut meld into a creamy mid-palate of vanilla bean and milk chocolate. The bitterness is moderate, providing enough structure to support the heavy malt and adjunct weight without being sharp. Finishes moderately sweet with lingering notes of roasted grain and warm coconut.

Mouthfeel. Very full-bodied and chewy with a velvety, luscious texture. Carbonation is low to moderate, and a smooth, noticeable alcohol warmth is present throughout, typical of its high strength.
