Beer #2: Paladin Porter
Style: Baltic Porter
ABV: 6.9%
IBU: 31

Beer #3: Imperial Night
Style: Imperial Stout
ABV: 9%
IBU: 70
Flavor Text: “Imperial Knight is a Russian Imperial Stout which uses a magnificent amount of hops to balance out the deep, dark, and roasty malt bill. Clocking in at 9% abv this beer is much like an Imperial Soldier: big, strong, and complex. Good to the last drop with a smooth and mellow finish.”
