Imperial Sweet Stout with Pistachio, Toasted Coconut, & Madagascar Vanilla
For Black Canvas No. 1, we went straight to the source of great taste. We reached out to our friend Bobby at Kenny’s Liquors, a family-owned & operated Florida business, who hooked us up with an incredible Four Roses Bourbon Barrel—specifically a store pick he selected for its unique character. We tucked our Imperial Sweet Stout base away in that barrel for 18 long months, letting it pull every ounce of oak and bourbon history from the staves. To complement those deep vanilla and caramel notes, we treated it with an absurd amount of real pistachios and toasted coconut chips using our proprietary roasting method, then finished with a delicate touch of Madagascar vanilla beans. The result is pure decadence—a thick, nutty, and tropical Imperial Sweet Stout that sets the bar for what Black Canvas is all about.

Release date: 2/28/2026 (SOLD OUT)
Imperial Sweet Stout with Toasted Almonds, Cacao Nibs, Marshmallow, & Madagascar Vanilla
Black Canvas No. 2 is our elevated interpretation of a classic ice cream profile—though there is nothing "rocky" about this road. This Sweet Imperial Stout began its journey 18 months ago, resting in select barrels to develop a velvety, complex foundation. To achieve our signature depth, we treated the aged base with an abundance of cacao nibs, roasted in-house using our proprietary method to ensure the rich, chocolatey hallmark of our stout program. We further layered the profile with in-house toasted almonds and sweet marshmallows, finishing with a delicate touch of Madagascar vanilla to round out the decadence.
