When today’s seasonal Russian Imperial Stout first arrived at Tavour, I got a frantic message: 

“D**********************MN,” my buddy Kevin wrote. “Just tried this What Evil Lurks. REALLY good.” 

Kevin drinks a lot of beer. That means two things: he really knows his stuff, and he only has the time to reach out if he REALLY loves a brew. Needless to say, this one must be special.

And of course it is — it’s from the wizards at Adroit Theory! The Beer Travel Guide summed it up well: “everything they make is killer!” 

For this 4.30-rated killer, the team started by conditioning their rich Stout base on mounds of freshly-roasted coffee and cacao nibs. Then they blended in rich maple syrup and added cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and clove for warm, seasonal spice. 

Like maple biscotti dunked into a fresh cup of joe, every sip of this sweeter What Evil Lurks variant delivers decadent, cozy flavors. 

But with only 20 cases to go around, Kevin is liable to drink his way through our whole stash — unless this liquid velvet finds its way into your hands.
