Acorn, Gorlovka Imperial Stout (England) 
(RP) Acorn's Gorlovka Stout is brewed with Maris Otter pale malt, crystal malt and roasted barley. The single hop is Challenger. The colour is ruby/black and the beer has a thick collar of foam. The aroma offers liquorice, cocoa powder, roasted grain and peppery hops. Bitter hops build on the palate with roasted grain, liquorice, cocoa and burnt fruit. The long and bitter finish has spicy hops, burnt fruit, liquorice, cocoa and roast. It?s an especially hoppy interpretation of stout and is bursting with complex flavours. It?s also available in cask-conditioned form.
