Rating: 4.25/5
Notes: I’m warming up to Brut IPAs but they still don’t fully do it for me. This one was light, flavorful and bubbly with solid grape flavor. It was much better than others I’ve drank. As I drank it, it grew on me but I’m also not much of a champagne fan either so there’s that…
Can art: Default/Standard GN can design.

Beer: Double Fudge Coconut Brownie

November 10, 2018 by thebeersbeer

Style: Imperial Stout
ABV: 11.5%
IBU: –
Hops: ?
———————————–
Brewery: Great Notion – Portland, OR
Brewery IG: @greatnotionpdx
———————————–
Rating: 4.25/5
Notes: I’ll start by saying I’m not a stout guy. Just not my style but I’ll give it a chance. It’s got tons of dark chocolate flavor and a little taste of coffee which I believe is there from the dark chocolate. It’s tasty with plenty of flavor but not my style. My wife likes stouts at our house but she isn’t much of an Imperial Stout drinker. “Yeah, I’ll drink more of these”, she said, which means it’s actually a really good stout.
Can art: Awesome design with the Sasquatch and brownie.
Drinkage: Day of can release. 1 day after date on can. ———————————–
