The Beers

Volume 9 - Dark Side

_dark_side_square_

Number 9…Number 9…Number9 in the “Side Project” series of beers is called “The Dark Side.” This Belgian Style Imperial Stout is loaded with subtle nuances of dark Belgian chocolate, roasted dark grains and just a hint of smokiness in the finish.

Fermented with real Trappist ale yeast, the Dark Side’s complexity and depth will entice the most sophisticated stout drinker. I kept the hop bitterness to a minimum to enhance the flavor of the yeast and malt profile.

I hope you enjoy my latest creation…cheers!
