High Peak Imperial Stout

High Peak Imperial Stout Wine Details
Price:

Description: Saranac Imperial Stout is part of our "High Peaks Series," a line of beers that are bigger, more complex and flavorful; beers that are meant to be sipped and savored. Saranac Imperial Stout is brewed with 11 malts to balance a delicious chocolate and coffee roasted flavor with a spicy herbal character of the generous kettle and dry hops.

Varietal Definition
Imperial Stout:
Imperial Stout is an extra strong version of stout which was originally brewed by the British to withstand the rigors of export to Russia and the Baltic states. This style is dense, opaque black and strong in alcohol (6-7%), with a note of sweetness. Burnt cocoa and dried fruit flavors are typical.
