About this release

Imperial Stout aged in Monbazillac barrels. This complex stout combines the rich, smoky flavours of roasted malt with the sweet, honeyed notes of Monbazillac dessert wines.

With an alcohol content of 11.0%, this 750ml bottle from Pomona Island Brew Co. from Salford, Manchester, offers a full and intense drinking experience. While this brewery is primarily known for their juicy and hazy IPAs, they prove with this creation that they also have mastery of more complex styles. The spirit of discovery at Pomona Island, named after a forgotten island in Manchester, is reflected in their willingness to apply experimental barrel aging techniques. This Imperial Stout is a perfect choice for lovers of full, characterful beers who enjoy the interaction between malted grain and wine aromas. The result is a very elegant stout with depth and refinement, with the alcohol content fully supported by the rich flavour profile. A beer to be enjoyed slowly, ideal for moments when you have time to truly appreciate the nuances.
