This Imperial Stout delivers a decadent sensory experience inspired by a rustic Canadian breakfast. Pouring an opaque jet black, it presents a rich tapestry of bittersweet chocolate and espresso derived from deep roasted malts. The addition of maple syrup provides a distinct, earthy sweetness that balances the charred edges of the grain. A gentle wisp of smoke malt weaves through the profile, evoking a wood-fired character that sharpens the complexity without overwhelming the palate. Despite its moderate strength for the category, it maintains a velvety, full-bodied presence, finishing with a harmonious blend of dark fruit esters and lingering forest-floor maple.
Appearance.Jet black (40+ SRM) and completely opaque. It features a thick, creamy, dark tan head with moderate retention and light lacing.
Aroma.High intensity of roasted grain, specifically dark chocolate and heavy coffee. Distinctive earthy maple syrup sweetness is complemented by a subtle, campfire-like smoke malt character. Low esters of prune and raisin are present.
Taste.Initial rich malt sweetness followed by intense flavors of bittersweet cocoa and charred grain. The maple syrup provides a woody mid-palate richness, while the smoke malt adds a savory complexity. Moderate-high bitterness balances the residual sugars, leading to a long, roasty finish.
Mouthfeel.Full-bodied and chewy with a velvety, luscious texture. Carbonation is moderate-low, and a smooth, gentle alcohol warmth is noticeable in the throat.
