Dapper Like Zappa is an intriguing Imperial Stout from the talented brewers at Isthmus Brewing Co. This robust beer boasts a complex and full-bodied flavor profile that is both sweet and spicy. The cacao nibs and coffee impart a rich, chocolatey essence, while the ancho and guajillo chilis, along with the cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla, provide a subtle heat that lingers pleasantly on the palate. The blend of these flavors creates a harmonious balance, with the sweetness and warmth complementing the bitterness of the roasted malt. The result is a smooth and creamy finish with a long-lasting aftertaste that invites you to savor every sip.
