Dark Hollow Stout

This stout is an effort to create a hop-forward stout with bold roasted malt complexity and coffee notes.
I'd rather be drinking a Dark Hollow
through which the sun will never shine,
then to be at home alone and knowin' that the batch is gone,
which would cause me to lose my mind.
