Tasting Profile

4.4Untappd

Dethurana pours an opaque near-black with a dense, fine-bubbled beige head that lingers with impressive retention, lacing the glass generously as the pour settles. On the nose, this extraordinary imperial stout from Revolution Brewing’s Deep Woods Series opens with a seductive wave of warm cinnamon and toasted coconut, underpinned by rich bourbon-soaked oak, a whisper of dark chocolate, and an intriguing whistle of maple sweetness that builds as the beer warms in the glass. The palate is nothing short of decadent: a full, plush body carries the interplay of Amburana barrel spice — exotic baking notes that recall a certain classic cinnamon cereal — alongside smooth bourbon warmth, sweet coconut, and layers of dark malt.

At 14.1% ABV, the alcohol is masterfully integrated, lending a gentle, rolling heat rather than harshness. The finish is long and moderately sweet, with a maple-driven warmth that lingers, gradually giving way to soft oak tannin and a final flourish of dark spice. A landmark of Chicago’s craft scene, Dethurana rewards both immediate enjoyment and short-to-medium cellaring.

Food Pairing

Revolution Brewing Dethurana pairs magnificently with a wedge of aged Gruyère or a bold Époisses de Bourgogne — the beer’s coconut, bourbon, and Amburana spice bridging the richness of the cheese with effortless elegance. For a sweet pairing, a pecan and brown-butter tart is a natural match: the caramelised nuttiness and buttery crust amplify the maple and cinnamon notes at the heart of this revolution brewing dethurana imperial stout, creating a truly indulgent dessert experience.
