Beer post: Victory Storm King Imperial Stout

This delicious imperial stout pours dark like a great French roast coffee, it even has that nice creamy ¼ inch layer on top. It’s heavy. It smells a little of roasted chicory and barley (which I think is sweet, if you can characterize a smell as sweet). It’s thick, dark, and creamy with no floral aromas, but with a pungently astringent hoppy aftertaste. Imperial stouts ruin my appreciation for regular stouts. I love stouts and porters, but this stuff is so tasty it makes me want some hot bread and butter, which for me, always goes well with beer.

p.s my fave Courtney buggalie lovalie's wedding bliss is getting it's own Storm King; Tropical Storm/Cat 1 Hurricane Hanna has rained it out. Weather forecasts project 4-6 inches of rain along the eastern 95 corridor, with a 6 foot storm surge between Myrtle Beach and Wilmington, Destination of wedding: Ocean Isle, NC. outlook: bleak and wet.
