About this release

Imperial Stout aged in Cognac barrels with 13.5% alcohol. This powerful beer from Brouwerij Emelisse combines deep roasted malt flavours with the refined complexity of Cognac barrel aging. Expect rich notes of dark chocolate, dried fruit, vanilla and a warm alcoholic finish with subtle oak wood nuances. The Midnight Study is a full-fledged Imperial Stout that makes no compromises. The brewery from Goes has once again proven why they are renowned for their craftsmanship in making robust, characterful special beers. The aging in Cognac barrels gives this beer an extra dimension that you won't find in a standard stout. The combination of roasted malt with the subtle influences of the barrel results in a beer that is both robust and refined. With over 13.5% alcohol, this is clearly a serious beer that commands respect. It's the kind of Imperial Stout that you enjoy slowly, preferably from a small glass where you can appreciate all its nuances. This is a beer for the evening, for quiet moments when you want to pause and savour something that is truly well made.
