Dizzy Lake Imperial Stout

A hypnotic, indulgent Imperial Stout from No.18 Brewing — China's Wuhan-born craft pioneer. Dizzy Lake (晃湖) pours a rich, impenetrable black with a dense, sweet coconut and malty aroma that draws you straight under.

On the palate: dark chocolate, black treacle and molasses give way to a creamy espresso mid-note with a warming, boozy finish that hangs long in the dark. Predominantly sweet, deeply layered and utterly immersive — this is No.18 at their most commanding. Best sipped slowly, by low light.
