Perhaps the least hoppy (sacrilege here at Avery!!) beer we\u2019ve brewed,  to accentuate the malt. The oak is very apparent in this rich and high  gravity ale, adding additional depth and complexity with a woody and  cask-like nose and a pronounced vanilla flavor on the palate. Notes for  2007 &#8211; With the addition of an additional roasted malt, Samael&#8217;s now  delivers subtle bitterness to add balance to the natural sweetness.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Beer Style:<\/strong> Oak Aged English Strong Ale<\/li>\n<li> <strong>Hop Variety:<\/strong> Columbus, Fuggels<\/li>\n<li> <strong>Malt Variety:<\/strong> Two-row barley, caramel 150L<\/li>\n<li> <strong>OG:<\/strong> 1.140   ABV: 14.5   IBUs: 41<\/li>\n<li> <strong>Color:<\/strong> Copper<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.2beerguys.com\/images\/forblog\/avery-mephistopheles.jpg\" alt=\"Avery Brewing - Mephistopheles Stout\" width=\"105\" height=\"346\" align=\"right\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Avery Brewing&#8217;s Mephistopheles Stout<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mephistopheles is the crafty shape shifter, the second fallen angel.
