Lost Abbey - Sepent's Stout

The history of the bible and religion is indeed the struggle of good vs. evil. Our Serpent’s Stout recognizes the evil of the dark side that we all struggle with.

This is a massively thick and opaque beer that begs the saints to join the sinners in their path to a black existence.

Tasting Notes: Pours dark and thick, with a creamy mocha-colored head and aromas of roasted malts, dark chocolate and french roast coffee.

The mouth-feel is full, smooth and round on the tongue. The taste is rich with deep roasted malts, cocoa, coffee and a touch of vanilla balanced perfectly against the alcohol to create an excellent winter warmer.

The ABV is 11.0 and the IBU rating is ??
Style - Imperial Stout
Glass to use- Pint Glass, Tumbler, Snifter or Oversized Wine Glass
Delivery 750ml Bottle

Can be cellared for long periods, under the proper conditions.

The Pour - Pours a thick black like ink color with a very dark brown head. Great lacing.
Aroma - Sweet, dark chocolate, molasses and coffee.
Taste -  Malty, chocolate, some dark fruit, molasses, some caramel and a slight bitter after taste.
Mouth Feel - Medium carbonation, full body.  Thick. 
Drinkable - Worth the price, one of the best stouts I have had in a while.  Another great brew from Lost Abbey. Do yourself a favor and find a bottle and enjoy. 

This beer pairs well with sharp cheese, chocolate desserts and smoked meats.
