Blackout Brewing Anti‑Cake Deluxe Blend Bourbon BA Imperial Stout Beer Specialty Beer 33 cl 11%
Blackout Brewing Anti‑Cake Deluxe Blend is a heavy, dark and dessert‑like imperial stout created by blending several cake‑inspired stouts and aging them in bourbon barrels. The result is an intense, sweet and deeply complex beer with warmth, depth and a pronounced barrel character.
The beer appears almost black in the glass with a thick, oily viscosity that immediately hints at its concentrated nature. The aroma offers dark chocolate, burnt caramel, vanilla, brown sugar and roasted malts, combined with clear bourbon notes of oak, warm spices and a gentle alcoholic sweetness. Beneath the first layers lie molasses, dried fruit and a light smoky wood note that adds extra depth.
The flavour is full, creamy and intense. The dark malts deliver cocoa, espresso, liquorice and caramelised sugar, while the cake‑inspired elements add a soft, sweet and almost confection‑like character. The bourbon barrels contribute warmth, vanilla, tannins and a rounded oak profile that balances the sweetness and creates a powerful yet harmonious whole. The 11% alcohol is noticeable but well integrated, giving a pleasant and lasting warmth.
The finish is long, deep and persistent with dark chocolate, toasted oak, bourbon, caramel and a sweet, warm afterglow. The combination of blended stout, cake elements and bourbon makes the beer complex and dessert‑like without becoming heavy in an unpleasant way.
Anti‑Cake Deluxe Blend Bourbon BA suits those who enjoy heavy, barrel‑aged and sweet stouts with plenty of depth and character. It works especially well as a post‑dinner beer or as a slow sipper on its own.
