About This Beer
This delicate blurring of wine and Stout comes from Collective Arts all the way in Ontario, Canada! It’s part of their highly sought after, annual Origin of Darkness Stout series.
To craft it, the Canadian crew teamed up with world-famous Garage Project who added New Zealand pinot noir skins to the brew for a little Kiwi flair. Then the pair aged the brew in neutral oak to mimic traditional wine conditioning.
Then, they transferred the brew to tawny port barrels for distinctive dark fruit and nut notes. Finally, they added New Zealand cacao nibs and South Pacific vanilla beans for rich, bright accents.
Tasting Notes
Intricate layers of lush red wine and dark chocolate accentuate nuances of cocoa-coated raisins and spiced vanilla until a tannic finish. Every silky sip simultaneously satisfies dessert wine cravings and deep, indulgent dark brew impulses!
