DESCRIPTION

The Siete is the seventh incarnation of our Russian Imperial Stout, brewed annually in celebration of our anniversary. It weighs in at a mellow 8.9% abv -- with a full body, and a complex flavor profile. It's a little spicy (thanks to the rye malt), a little coffee-like (from the roasted malts) and a little toffee-like (thanks to a blend of crystal malts and piloncillo, a raw Mexican cane sugar). This batch was aged in a blend of whiskey and madiera barrels. We also blended in some rum barrel aged Biere del Back to help round out the fruitiness from the Madiera barrels. We're particularly proud of this year's batch, and we hope you enjoy!
