Basqueland / Dugges Live Forever
Imperial Stout - 10.5º
Basqueland Brewing
This Imperial Stout presents a decadent, multi-layered sensory experience. A jet black pour is crowned with a dense beige foam, releasing an immediate and intense raspberry aroma. The substantial grain bill of eight different malts provides a dense, chewy foundation with flavors of biscuit and cookie, reminiscent of a fine pastry. Deep roasted notes contribute hints of dark chocolate and licorice, which are beautifully rounded by sweet vanilla. Despite the 10.5% ABV, the alcohol warmth is smoothly integrated into the velvety body, leading to a long, bittersweet finish where the tart fruit and rich malt complexity linger harmoniously.
