Burdock Bouvier D'brusco
$21.20
From Burdock
"Barrel aged beer rested on Cab Fran Rose skins from Pearl Morissette. Big juicy flavours and natural charisma (effervescence), make it easy to mistake this big dog as part of the lambrusco breed.
Expect big bubbly action, we suggest chilling Bouv and opening with a glass near by!"

This Russian Imperial Stout opens with rich aromas of chocolate, roasted coffee, and caramelized sugar, drawing you into its dark, velvety depths. On the palate, it’s smooth and creamy, decadent but not overindulgent, with a gentle hop bitterness that lifts the sweetness and keeps each sip remarkably drinkable."
