Oskar Blues Ten Fidy (10.0 ABV)

It’s the beer equivalent of decadently rich milkshake made with malted-milk balls and Heaven’s best chocolate ice cream. Ten FIDY is about 10% ABV and is made with enormous amounts of two-row malts, chocolate malts, roasted barley, flaked oats and hops. Its huge-but-comforting flavors hide a whopping 98 IBUs that are deftly tucked underneath the beer’s mountains of malty goodness.

Very smooth for a ten fifty beer. Strong body, coffee flavors. Can didn't impart any metallicness. Very tasty.

This was a surprisingly good stout in a can - the equivalent of a dark chocolate malt. (I was recently resisting, for the sake of my Atkin's diet, a display of malt balls at the new E. 86th Street Fairway.) This stout was neither as chocolately, syrupy and strong as Avery Mephostopheles (which I consider one of the best stouts out there), nor was it as sugary as Southern Tier Mokah (which gradually exceeds my tolerance for sugariness). Ten Fidy was recommended as a good alternative to other imperial stouts, such as those by Smuttynose and McNeill's Dark Angel, by the proprietor of City Swiggers. Those latter two have the bitter finish I prefer, but this stout avoided the sugariness that I don't care for. So, this was a good recommendation. City Swiggers just opened on E. 86th Street. A welcome neighbor. Today was my birthday: I added the can to my childhood beer can collection, and went another day avoiding the malt balls at Fairway.
