Day 163, December 23

The Offering: Firestone Walker Parabola Reserve. Barrel aged Imperial stout. Firestone Walker brewery, California, USA.

ABV: 12.0%

Wow, just wow! If you ever get the chance to visit The Taproom at Firestone Walkers's Brewery in Paso Robles, CA, do it, and enjoy their reserve stouts. This one was aged 12 months in oak and is one of the most complex brews I've tasted. Deep malty rich sweet nose. Creamy deep malts that coat your palate. Very thick mouthfeel like a chocolate milkshake. Really dark currant, almost syrupy with great spice. Superb.

Points: 95

Thanks to Doug

Cheers
