Omnipollo Argus is a decadent, high-gravity Imperial Stout that captures the indulgent essence of chocolate hazelnut toast spread. Pouring like liquid obsidian, it releases an intense bouquet of toasted hazelnuts, rich cocoa, and charred bread. On the palate, the experience is deeply luscious, layering velvety milk chocolate over a robust base of roasted malts. The 11% ABV provides a sophisticated warmth that integrates seamlessly with the dessert-forward profile. Hints of dark fruit and a moderate bitterness from roasted grains provide a necessary counterpoint to the sweetness, resulting in a complex, lingering finish of hazelnut richness and toasted crust.
