Wow! I’ve never had a beer where if you held it up to a high intensity light, you still could not see through it! That’s the precise reason this imperial stout from Deschutes is called the Abyss. The pour was smooth, the sticky head with a red tone to an otherwise dark class with an aroma of coffee and malts. Made with licorice and molasses, this brew had a third of its batch aged in oak barrels to give a taste that is deeper, more complex, and simply amazing! The taste has some dry notes throughout, but the are quickly overwhelmed by those roasted malts and deep flavors. You know it has to be good when a beer has a wax seal over the cap. Watch out or this heavy hitter may consume you!
