If you ever wondered what it would be like if someone replaced your mouth with a pinball machine, then this is the beer for you. Avery has combined fire-breathing strength with massive complexity in this beer that begins with aromas of raisins and toasted pumpkin seeds and follows with sweet and savory flavours of dried fruits, honey and pine resin.

This whiskey barrel-aged Imperial Stout starts like a beer and ends like a scotch. Really. It?s kinda neat. It?s not overly peaty the way some of these concoctions can turn out, but rather it?s smooth, smoky and sweet; like a chocolate, vanilla and caramel sundae sprinkled with caviar. We suggest ordering one from our cellar at the beginning of your meal and allowing it to warm up so you can have it with dessert.

Another on of our really, really, rediculously rare offerings is this bourbon barrel-aged Imperial stout; the production run of which was limited to a scant 1000 cases.  Pouring out like an oil tanker run aground, this black beer soaks up all available light and emits deep chocolate and coffee flavours, with the 4 month barrel-ageing coming through with notes of oak and vanilla.  A bottle re-fermentation using champagne yeast has also added light effervescence to the entire experience.

Since 1997, the storied London brewery Fuller's has produced an annual vintage ale.  Their intent has been to brew a strong English ale with the finest old-world hops and malts of the season to create a beer that develops with age, replete with all the boozy fruit notes and aromas that define the style.  We've been cellaring their beers since we've opened, and hope to keep doing it until the end of time.  If you're looking for the best day ever, grab some friends and try a vertical tasting of all the vintages we have left.

C'mon, we dare you to try this one.  What-you chicken?  Too reluctant to have all your senses bombarded by the darkest beer on our menu?  Scared that you might be overpowered by this deep black, chewy, 100% bourbon barrel aged beer?  Maybe you can't handle the steamroller assult of bitter chocolate, molasses, tobacco, leather and alcohol that this ale has to offer.  Oh, you can?  Well, cheers then.

Some folks will dispute the fact that Utopias is the strongest beer ever brewed.  Well, those folks are wrong.  This piece of brewing genius clocks in at an astounding 27% alcohol, without using the gimmick of freezing and removing part of the water content.  Strength aside, this silken elixir carries strong and smooth flavours of sherry, Manischewitz wine and maple.  Also present is a beautifully rendered umami complexity that contributes savory soy notes.  So rich and rare, we only sell it by the shot.  

his small family company recently sprouted from nowhere to become one of the most highly sought-after brewers in the international craft market, and their Pannepot Grand Reserva is a perfect example as to why.  Dark, spicy and complex, this beer drinks somewhere between a strong Trappist ale and a steak dinner.  Brewed with spices, aged for 14 months in French oak and then a further 8 months in reclaimed Calvados casks; the combination of all these courageous techniques has produced an outstandingly unique beer.
