A Note on This Beer

*Heads up — our stash is already 50% gone!*

You probably wouldn't want a live Chupacabra in your beer fridge — it'll destroy all the shelving, break your fridge light...

Worst of all, if you have any 903 beers in there, it won’t even care about sucking anyone’s blood — it’ll sink its fangs RIGHT into your stash of today’s oak barrel-aged Imperial Stout! They can drink up all its midnight-black decadence in a matter of seconds.

Which is incredibly rude, considering the fact that Chupacabaras usually snack on goats. For us craft-drinkers, a goat doesn’t hold a candle to this luxurious Dark Beer. It comes fused with heaps of hazelnut, vanilla, cinnamon, allspice, and coconut, for goodness sake!

Not to mention, the loads of gooey marshmallow and molasses-like turbinado sugar that 903’s dexterous brewers packed into each batch.

Ugh, the loss would be unbearable. ESPECIALLY since, once these Texas-based brewmaster’s third batch is gone, it won’t be back for who knows how long.

So, if you do encounter a real Chupacabra in your fridge, be safe. But also… do what you can to save the beer. If you dare!

I wish GIFs worked here, because all I’d put is a standing ovation. This is a hell of a beer, and I wish I’d have bought more than one. The description on this one is right on the money. My only real complaint is that the can wasn’t bigger.

Very stout and sweet. Great for the style, not my style. Fortunately Mrs P likes it!

This feel really flat for me. Super thin for a barrel-aged and really one noted.

A lot going on. Hazelnut comes across as peanut butter, which is not a bad thing in my book. Mainly PB and oak, but hints of everything else going on in between. Good, not great.

The first taste is the coconut and marshmallow and they blend well together. The cinnamon is very subtle and works well. The stout base works well with these additions.

Amazing balance of flavor. It almost smells as good as it tastes. Wonderful example of a pastry stout

Flavor is of marshmallow, vanilla, coconut, brown sugar, cocoa, pecan, hazelnut, cinnamon, allspice, and oak. Very tasty pastry stout. There are a lot of different flavors going on here and they blend together pretty well. The sweetness up front is mellowed by the dry oaky finish. I would definitely have this again.

Boozy, but it is 12.5% - the taste is amazing! Great nose and mouth feel and the blend of all of the flavors works really well. This reminds me of scrumptious dessert.

Another great stout from adroit theory. Chocolate, coconut goodness

The chocolate and marshmallow is balanced by cinnamon and mild spice. Still shows a good amount of sugar. The booze is hidden by all the sweetness. Best to split this one. Becomes Overly sweet as you drink

Nice mix of flavors. Dominated by the hazelnut flavor. Sweet like a pastry stout should be. A little bitter aftertaste though.

Very unique profile to it. It took a second for the taste to settle, but eventually I came to really enjoy it.

When you drink something this good you want to live in every single sip. Smooth and sweet but not cloying. The individual notes of the adjuncts pop in and out as you taste it but it all blends together like a dessert-powered Voltron

Best beer I've had in a while, rich, strong, complex stout. All the flavors described are there, and they each keep coming to the forefront, then giving way to the next, then making their way back again. Soo good!

There is A LOT going on in this. I love a good stout with a note of one or two things like coffee or coconut or vanilla but this was just to much. My son told that he saw this one on Tavour and ordered one and he told me he couldn’t finish it. I drank about half of it and I’m done. If you like a stout that keeps you wondering what is in it , this is the answer. If the ingredients weren’t printed on the can I’d still be trying to figure out what the hell was going on in the glad. Not bad , just not my cup of tea or glass of Stout if you will.

Tasty but Strong AF

This beer captures quite well the different flavors on the label. I can both taste and smell cinnamon, coconut, vanilla and hazelnut. The marshmallow is most difficult to discern but the overall flavor combinations are well balanced. The high gravity is offset nicely with the smooth mouthfeel and there’s no strong alcohol flavor like some beers at this gravity level. Those who like big imperial pastry stouts will enjoy this beer.

I assume those rating this beer low, are not fans of Hazelnut, which is very upfront in this beer. I'm a big fan of the stuff so this beer is a dream for me. You get a healthy dose of creamy Marshmallow and Bourbon Soaked Chocolate as well, then there is a hint of Cinnamon spice somewhere in the mix. The body is nice and viscous, but not syrupy thick which makes it almost Crushable. Beware of the that ABV though, it could put you on your ass!

Amazing! Hands down my favorite from all deliveries so far. Creamy, rich, full. All the sweetness was cut and blended perfectly with the spice of cinnamon and allspice, which also gave it a slighy carbonated texture. And a beautiful hint of marshmallow to chase it down. Absolute perfection in my opinion

This beer is not at all misrepresented in the description. Ultimately there’s just too much going on here for me, especially as your palette adjusts to it.
