Doppelgangers Imperial Stout
first beer i’ve had from this Carson City brewer, and it was a pleasant surprise. there were aspects of it that were subpar - mainly that it more resembled the flavoe profile of an imperial porter than a stout, but either way, it was done well. big roasted and malted chocolate aroma and flavor, with some hops coming through just at the end. on the light side for an imperial stout, but drinks big and is very tasty.

Doppelgangers Scooters Oatmeal Stout
Draft sample @ BBQ, Brews and Blues. This may have been the surprise of the event. Pours brown with a medium sized beige head. The aroma had a nice combination of roasted malts, moderately sweet, with dark chocolate. The flavor was more roasted malts and dark chocolate with a smooth quality from the oatmeal. Great mouthfeel, very smooth. I could have had a couple of these.
