Description
In a nutshell:
Classic Imperial Stout with flavours of dark chocolate, espresso, and a warming kick a beer that's certainly not for the faint of heart.
The lowdown:
A strong stout this certainly is, clocking in at a hefty 9%. But fear not, it's not a all-out assault on the taste buds. Rich and dark as a night sky, with a tan head that settles like a good book. Hints of coffee and chocolate on the nose, a promise of warmth to come. The first sip's a revelation smooth and surprisingly drinkable for its strength. Roasted malts dominate, with a touch of dark fruit and a gentle bitterness at the back. Not for the faint of heart, but a cracking winter warmer for those who appreciate a stout with some serious depth.
The Brewery:
Tucked away in Lewes, deep into Sussex, Harvey's have been brewing for eight generations. From their traditional brewery in the heart of the town it's obvious their roots lie in a much earlier age. Nonetheless they've consummately managed to navigate the modern world with their time-tested brewing methods. Their beers lean towards the traditional. There's their Best Bitter, which does precisely what it advertises - delivering a rather agreeable pint. And if you're in the mood for something darker, their Old Ale is a proper winter warmer with just the right amount of depth. In a world of ever-changing craft beer trends and more hops than you can shake a stick at, Harvey's offers a certain old-school charm and there's something reassuring in their steadfast dedication to well-made, unfussy brews.
Style - Stout ABV 9.0% - Very Strong
