Tasting Notes
Take a sip, and you’ll discover why Horus Stouts are some of the most coveted in the craft scene. Rich crème brûlée nuances course throughout, melding with fudgy chocolate and touch of mocha. All that time in oak translates to sublime layers of barrel charecter. Hints of warming whiskey and oaky tannins beautifully complement the sweetness, and it’s all so dangerously smooth considering the big 19% ABV.
