Gravity Shift
This might be one of the most beautiful cans I’ve seen. Pair that with a 14.5% ABV stout contained inside and you got one hell of a treat.
I’m gong to dart this review with this beer messed me up. I had not eaten that much and I was straight hammered by the end. With that being said, my tasting notes were comical at best.
As you can see this stout pours think and black. The head is a nice dark brown and great retention. I could of located a penny on this bad boy. With such a thick beer it left some wicked lacking all over that glass. It damn near dyed the glass.
The aroma is magnificent. Bold notes a cocoa, and sweet vanilla fill your nostrils. Then you get warming notes of alcohol, coffee, and chocolate malt. It’s a complex swirl of beautiful aromas.
The taste is in the verge of being overwhelming, but it takes you to the edge and the alcohol burn muted all the complex flavors. The most pronounced flavors are the chocolate and vanilla. The coffee, malt and other roasted notes build into the cocoa and sweet vanilla. The finish is all bourbon and alcoholic burn that round this beer out.
The mouthfeel is thick and creamy. When I say thick think warm pudding. You’ll be chewing this before you finish the glass.
That looks so good. I like a Nice chewy beer every now and then.
It's amazing. Unfortunately, the brewery has gone down hill a bit. This is a reminder of better days.
That is a pretty awesome can. It reminds me of the one from Keweenaw Borealis Broo. That is a beautiful can too. I think i would definitely have this one. Have you tried the milkshake stouts from Rochester Mills Brewing. I hear they are fantastic!
I’ve had a few Keweenaw beers, but not that one. I ha e also has quite a few of the milkshake stouts variants. They are pretty good. They can be a little sweet for me. I have not had one in a while though so maybe they have tweeted that a bit.
I really like the Pickaxe Blonde from Keweenaw. It goes down smooth and you can drink quite a few of them before you know what time it is!
