The heavy hitting legends at Yeerongpilly's Slipstream Brewing are marking another year of craft excellence by bringing back their highly anticipated winter titan. Anniversary Ale IX is a decadent, unapologetically massive Imperial Stout built specifically to combat the seasonal chill. It pours an ink black, viscous liquid with a dense, mocha hued head. On the nose, it hits you with an incredibly inviting, complex payload of dark chocolate brownie, freshly pulled espresso shots, and a deep undercurrent of sticky raisin and plum. The palate is beautifully thick, velvety smooth, and full bodied, layering bittersweet roasted malts over a luxurious texture. It concludes with a satisfyingly long, dry roasty finish and a beautifully integrated, boozy warmth that gently hits your chest. It is pure, liquid celebration engineered for slow, contemplative sipping.
