"A black beer to brighten your day" read the label of LH's Imperial Stout pours a dark but NOT truly black color. Aroma of heavy malt and raisins. The taste is exquisite with a full bodied mouthfeel of slight vanilla, roasted coffee and cheek caving in alcohol (9.15%). Made with Premium Pale 2-row, Munich, Crystal, Chocolate, Roasted barley, Black barley and Flaked oats (the oats definitely give this one a smooth velvet feel). Then hopped with Magnum and US Goldings. A nice start to the Kalends of March.
