Big Bear, as the name implies, is a hefty, black, Russian
Imperial-style stout. This strong stout boasts a rich, caramel
sweetness lavished by a robust, deep-roasted heartiness you can sink
your teeth into... Big Bear’s bold flavors are produced using a blend
of Belgian and English roasted barley and crystal malts. Some unique
flavors come forth in the malt character...Louisiana sweet molasses and
dark brown sugar. This dark brew is well hopped with Chinook and
Cascade hops, which are somewhat, masked by the malt. This is a
balanced strong brew boasting an ABV of 8.1% that can creep up on you,
"so don’t get mauled". It has a dry roasted quality that masks its high
alchohol content, so drink responsibly.
