About this beer
This is Arpus Brewing Co.’s Barrel Aged Sour Cherry Imperial Stout, a robust and complex offering weighing in at 12% ABV. Brewed in Latvia, the beer utilizes water, barley, oats, wheat, cherry, and hops, with the label noting that natural sediment may occur. Its flavor profile promises a tart and fruity experience, layered upon a dark stout base, and further refined by barrel aging. The ingredients include several specific hop varieties: Arpus, Jauntrenči, Elmī, Ādažu nov, and LV-2164.
The bottle presents a striking label image depicting a close-up of a vibrant cherry branch against a muted background, hinting at the prominent fruit character within. It is imported by Lime Ventures, Concord, CA, and best stored at +36°F to +60°F. Government warning labels are prominent, as is the distributor information for several states, along with a California cash refund notice. The beer comes in 14.9 fl oz (440 ml) bottles.
