The Abyss

The Abyss
Stout
Limited Quantities
Alc. 11% | IBUs 65

A deep, dark Imperial Stout, The Abyss has almost immeasurable depth and complexity. Hints of molasses, licorice and other alluring flavors make it something not just to quaff, but contemplate.

As for the great "drink it now or let it age" debate, we stand clearly on the fence. Distinct and delicious on release, the flavors meld and fuse into an entirely different pleasure a year on.

Release parties at our Bend Pub and Portland Pub on Thursday, November 15th, starting at 11 am when the doors open.
