Blaecorn Unidragon

I now want a unidragon

Beer : Blaecorn Unidragon

Brewery : Clown Shoes
Brewed In : Massachusetts, USA
Style : Russian Imperial Stout
ABV : 12.5%
Price : Don't recall. I bought a lot of beer that day.
Notes : Year round... WHAT?! Jealous.
Story : I got this guy in Chicago. Bought it solely because I had never had a Clown Shoes beer before.

Appearance : This beer is as dark as whoever's heart is that rides the unidragon on the bottle. I just imagine that person is pure evil. I mean he rides a freaking unidragon! Beer didn't have much head but it left great lacing.

Smell : Blaecorn Unidragon is full of chocolate, molasses and smoky notes.

Taste : Chocolate, boozy, coffee, woody, smoky, and raisins. This beer has a lot going on.

Mouthfeel : Drinking this beer is like getting stampeded by a unidragon. Tons of hurt. Good hurt though. Very full bodied is what I am trying to say.

Drinkability : This was my first Clown Shoes beer. Was a tasty one.
