Evil Twin Aun Mas A Jesus

For the love of all things holy… I do enjoy myself a massive double/imperial stout. Evil Twin Aún Más A Jesús (translated to “Even More Jesus”) is just that and more.

Weighing in at 12% ABV, this thick and chewy stout is brewed for Evil Twin by the Spanish company, Companyia Cervesera del Montseny. I’m not sure what sort of sorcery this brewery is using, but if they make a stout like this, then count me in for anything else that they may brew. Aún Más A Jesús is robust, full-flavored and has so much going on within its abyssal depths that it should be carrying a moniker more malevolent.

Appearance

The brew pours like 10 year old, used motor oil, capped with a head of thick, dark brown foam.

Aroma

Coffee, burnt caramel, cocoa, camp fire smoke off in the distance and molasses all combine for a wonderfully inviting aroma.

Taste

Aún Más A Jesús is super thick and chewy with a viscous full body and chest-warming finish. Coffee, dark chocolate, a solid sweetness, a bit of acrdi tobacco and earthy character all combine for a whirlwind of flavor and depth. The beer is robust and rich without leaning too heavily into the decadent realm.

Overall

With the specs and flavors mentioned above, this ain’t no small beer. Evil Twin Aún Más A Jesús is huge in terms of body, flavor and potency. There’s a ton going on within the glass and even more so as it’s had an opportunity to warm in the glass. All I know is that I’ll be picking up a few more bottles of this big, tasty stout.

Rating: 4.5/5
