Brewer's Description: "The world's strongest dark beer. It is brewed using six different yeast strains over seven months and then aged. Dark, rich, roasty, and complex, World Wide Stout has more in common with a fine port than a can of cheap, mass-marketed beer (released November 1 each year... very limited availability)." Alcohol Content (ABV): 22% Calories: Carbohydrates: Bitterness (IBU): 80 **Stats are based on a 12 ounce beer

The smell is very malty and has a small amount of alcohol to it, and the taste -- oh, the taste! It's EXTREMELY drinkable for the 22% tag and has a nice, stouty undertone. It doesn't hit you full on as a stout, but it definitely is, with a nice burn at the end. I'll add more later once I see what this one does to me!

It does not have the taste of a traditional stout; however, this is not necessarily a bad thing, as I found the taste to be full and rewarding. The ABV will definitely take some by surprise (myself included), but that is a welcome surprise. All in all, well worth the cost and one of the better beers I have had.

This tastes nothing like a stout to me and tastes quite a bit like an Eisbock. Tell me I'm wrong... I dare you! Lots of carmel syrupy malts, dark fruit flavors, and maybe a little bit of roasted chocolate followed by a shitpot of alcohol. It is very good in limited doses and will derail your train..."
