Lizard of Koz

Stout - Imperial / Double Pastry

This one is near and dear to our hearts. Brewmaster Jeremy Kosmicki wanted to make the birthday of his little sister, Liz, a special one. So he did what he does best and brewed a stout using a few of her favorite ingredients: fresh Michigan blueberries, rich chocolate and vanilla aged in bourbon barrels to round out those beautiful flavors. Liz was floored and we think you will be too.

loaded with blueberries, it softens the stout and gives almost a sour taste to it. super smooth all around

Freshly crushed, perfumed, minty blueberries and chocolates on the nose. This has to be more fruit than stout, after several years of aging I think the blueberry has mellowed to a point where it goes nicely with the sweet vanilla, spice and milky choc.

Better than when it was fresh. The saccharine note has fallen off while leaving deep sweet blueberry with chocolate. It’s way good. Floral-blueberry finish.

Very smooth and sweet, I can pick up chocolate and berries. Tartness of the berries lingers in the finish.

Personally, this is dank as shit. Rich chocolatey stout with hella blueberries. Fruit has probably died down since being fresh, but still has a good amount of blueberry sweet/tartness, & light bourbon notes. Glad to finally try this guy.
