Lot #358. Deschutes Brewery The Abyss Russian Imperial Stout Reserve 2015

Description: Consists of 1 Bomber, 0.65L
Score: 99 BA.
"World Class. Notes: A deep, dark Imperial Stout, The Abyss has almost immeasurable depth and complexity. Hints of molasses, licorice and other alluring flavors make it something not just to quaff, but contemplate. As for the great “drink it now or let it age” debate, we stand clearly on the fence. Distinct and delicious on release, the flavors meld and fuse into an entirely different pleasure after a year or more in the cellar." BeerAdvocate.com
Provenance: The Tiberian Cellar
Notes: (12.2% ABV). "Malt beverage brewed with black strap molasses, licorice, with cherry bark and vanilla added with 21% aged in oak bourbon barrels, 8% aged in oak barrels, and 21% aged in oak wine barrels."
