Commercial Description:
Black as coal in color, this bottle conditioned Stout has a velvety rich and sweet malt aroma. After pouring, a dense brown head gives way to a big, full-bodied and creamy texture that has flavors of roasted coffee and black currants, blending perfectly with the malt. A generous amount of hops add balance and complexity to this extraordinary stout that will continue to improve with age. A worthy beer to cellar and enjoy throughout the year.

A pitch black beer with a disappearing dark brown head. Both the aroma and flavor are sweet with notes of chocolate and roasted malt.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of yespr. Completely opaque black with a light brown head. Aroma of dried and overripe fruit as well as some alcohol. Rather full-bodied with lots of sweetish, roasted malt and accents of raisins in rum. Some bitterness in the finish. A nice one. 150807

Bottled, thanks hopsrus!!
Completely black with brown head. Striking aroma of chocoalate and dried fruits. Sweet and peppery, perhaps less malty than some other imperial stouts, notes of raisin. Hoppy salty finish.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours brown with and amber hue and a light brown head. Slight berry note and roasted rye in the aroma. Dry malty flavour. Rye and slight roasted finish. Very nice surprise

Black color. The aroma is mild, with soft roasted malt, coffee, milky, vanilla. Good body structure in the front, getting drier later; the flavor is a quite good mix of caramel, malt, with a touch of sweet liquorice coffee and vanilla. Good.
