Yria Herakles Xtra Strong Stout

At a massive 20% ABV, this Imperial Stout presents an incredibly dense and viscous sensory profile. The experience is dominated by an intense, concentrated core of bittersweet chocolate, espresso, and black licorice. Heavy layers of dark fruit, such as prunes and oil-slicked raisins, meld with a significant vinous alcohol presence reminiscent of vintage Port. This limited edition Xtra Strong variant offers a chewy, syrup-like texture that coats the palate, balanced by a firm roast bitterness. The finish is exceptionally long and warming, evolving from charred grain to a rich, decadent sweetness that showcases the potent, extra-strong character intended by the brewer.
