Assassin 2021 is one of the most prestigious and sought-after beers produced by Toppling Goliath Brewing, and widely regarded as one of the finest barrel-aged imperial stouts in the craft beer world. Brewed in extremely limited quantities, it is aged in American bourbon barrels, often for over a year, to achieve remarkable depth and complexity.
This stout is known for its thick, almost syrupy body, deep black color, and rich aroma profile featuring notes of dark chocolate, roasted coffee, bourbon, vanilla, oak, molasses, and dried fruit. With an alcohol content that typically exceeds 12-13% ABV, Assassin remains surprisingly smooth and drinkable due to its refined balance and integration.
The beer is rarely released and usually available only through lotteries or exclusive on-site sales, making it a prized item among stout collectors and craft beer enthusiasts.
