About this release

An impressive Russian Imperial Stout from Hoppy Road, aged in Islay whisky casks. This French brewery from Maxéville has created a true masterpiece. Expect smoky, peaty notes typical of Islay single malts, combined with deep flavors of dark chocolate, coffee and dried fruit. The cask aging adds a complex layer of whisky, smoke and subtle sweetness to this powerful stout of 11.4% ABV. Mazout Islay is a full, intensely smoky and characterful beer experience that perfectly suits lovers of complex, sophisticated flavors. The aging in ex-whisky casks gives this beer an incomparable depth that takes you back to the rugged Scottish coastline, without having to set foot outside your door. With an Untappd rating of 4.21 out of 5 stars, this beer also convinces the experts. This is no ordinary beer, but a statement in your glass. Perfect for quiet moments or to share with friends who equally enjoy intense, well-crafted craft beers.
