Blackout Stout

Blackout Stout, Great Lakes Brewing Company, Cleveland, OH
(Imperial Stout, Rated 99)

Another cold, Winter night. Another fantastic Winter warmer. This Russian Imperial Stout pours pitch black with the faintest of tan heads. Strong black coffee aromas with molasses and dark, roasted malts. Chocolaty sweet up front, then dries out with a bitter roast malt finish. Very smooth on the palate. A great stout for stout lovers.
