This series celebrates the deliciousness of a bold, chewy stout that’s more than a little bit extra. Black Liquids are rich and chocolatey, with a toasty malt backbone and a generous dose of dessert-esque adjuncts. It’s essentially the beer version of saying “yes” to whipped cream on that hot chocolate.

Volume 9: The latest volume in the Black Liquids series brings together the classic yet sophisticated combination of chocolate and oranges. The base beer received a generous dose of toasted cocoa nibs and was further conditioned on a big ol’ heap of orange peels — extracting the essence of the orange without the acidity in the name of keeping everything silky smooth. Does Black Liquids Vol. 9 bring forward fond memories of munching on a Terry's Chocolate Orange? Definitely. Did Bellwoods Brewery melt several Terry’s Chocolate Oranges together in a pot in order to conduct a side-by-side taste comparison? Maybe later.
