The Bruery Tranquil Moonlight
Imperial Stout 21.5 º
Tranquil Moonlight is a monumental Imperial Stout that showcases the extreme artistry of double barrel aging. At a staggering 21.5% ABV, it presents a decadent sensory profile dominated by layers of bittersweet dark chocolate, viscous molasses, and scorched espresso. The extended time in wood imparts profound notes of toasted oak, vanilla bean, and a spirituous bourbon warmth that integrates seamlessly with esters of dried figs and black currants. This is a massive, slow-sipping experience where the intense roasted grain character is softened by an opulent, velvet-like sweetness. It is a harmonious masterclass in depth, complexity, and sheer power.
Appearance. Jet black and opaque (40+ SRM). A thin, dark tan head quickly recedes to a fine ring, leaving thick, oily legs on the glass—a testament to its immense viscosity and high alcohol content.
Aroma. High intensity and deeply layered. Dominant aromas of baker’s chocolate, espresso, and black licorice are met by a heavy barrel influence of vanilla, coconut, and charred oak. Secondary notes of port-like oxidation, prunes, and dark cherries emerge as the beer warms.
Taste. The initial impact is a wave of dark fudge and molasses, followed by roasted malts providing a coffee-like bitterness. The mid-palate reveals complex dark fruit—raisins and dates—wrapped in a persistent bourbon-like spirit character. The finish is long and warming with a lingering bittersweet cocoa and toasted wood aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Very full-bodied, chewy, and syrupy with a thick, coating texture. Carbonation is low, and the alcohol presence is significant, providing a deep, slow-spreading warmth that remains smooth rather than sharp.
