Beer description
Named for an infamous auto-correct error, this breathtakingly flavorful Imperial Stout results from our quest to summit the peak of liquid decadence. Aged for months upon months in freshly-emptied cognac barrels, this spellbindingly tasty beverage emerged with a beautiful mélange of dark fruit, toffee, dark cocoa, and oak, all ensconced in a thick, chewy mouthfeel that brings the whole sensory package home in spectacular fashion. If you want to experience the full potential of this majestic beast, letting it warm up to about 55 degrees before drinking it is an extremely good idea.
