Minutes to Midnight is a mighty 11.1% barrel aged imperial stout brewed
with vanilla, cherries, and cocoa. Born in Toronto to
Bellwoods Brewery,
M2M comes in 500mL bottles. It has a powerful and wildly sweet aroma
that is primarily woody with bourbon notes, along with some cherry
elements. The flavour is extremely potent, with vanilla and chocolate
leading the charge up front, with sour cherry waiting in reserve.
Nestled among these flavours are notes of molasses and tobacco, as well
as a huge crush of ol’ fashioned booze.
Another bulky
edition to Bellwoods Brewery’s catalogue of strong ass stouts, M2M is a
strong and flavour-packed ale. To my mind, it’s a touch too sweet and
the cherry is a little to dominant at the back end, but the overall
effect is still quite enjoyable.
Rating: 7.5 out of 10.
