The Tres
DESCRIPTION
The Tres is the third incarnation of our Russian Imperial Stout, brewed annually in celebration of our anniversary. It weighs in at 9.2% 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). It's real big, real black, and real tasty. Hope you enjoy!
PAIRINGS
The Tres isn't exactly a dinner beer, but it works magic with sharp blue cheeses (the funkier the better) and rich dessert -- try it with chocolate lava cake or toffee gelato...
