About This Beer

There’s dark beer, and then there’s DARK beer. This Barrel-Aged Imperial Milk Stout pours a thick, jet-black color so dark you’ll reach for the light switch!

With tantalizing notes of malted milk balls, toasted caramel, and subtle smokiness, Dark Mode’s enticing aroma calls out from beyond the void, and begs to be sampled. But look out – despite the massive 13.8% ABV, it’s dangerously easy to drink!

Tasting Notes

A smoldering blend of applewood smoked malt, chocolate malt, traditional roasted barley, golden oats, and debittered black malt gives an insane wallop of rich malty flavors

Bourbon barrels impart majestic notes of fine whiskey, while milk sugar adds a sultry creaminess that makes each decadent sip even more delightful than the last.

Probably my least favorite from Revolution, but only bc they set the bar so high. This is super smooth, mild, & easy to drink for the stout it is (which is really impressive). I guess I was expecting something rougher.

D eliciously bourbon-flavored and rich, almost barrel-aged barleywine sweetness and booze. The only knock I can find is the fizziness and lack of head for a “milk stout.”

This bold stout has all the rich creaminess, chocolate, molasses, and vanilla you would want, but veers too much on the sweet side.

boozy smell kicks this off. I get some sweetness and that chocolate. feels a little OP by the booziness.

Creamy head, smoky aroma, rich sweet chocolate taste with bourbon notes, silky mouthfeel, and a warming alcohol finish.

Roasty and boastful of dark chocolate, coffee, and hot sweetness that seems only slightly impacted by the barrel.

Good caramel and roasty malts notes. Bourbon barrel-aging gives a hint of dark fruit flavors.
