COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Danish: Denne øl tager udgangspunkt i den klassiske Brøckhouse Stout og er inspireret af de russiske imperial stouts. Brøckhouse Epic Stout er brygget med generøse mængder pale ale -, münchner-, karamel- og chokolademalt, samt ristet byg, valset havre og mørk sirup. Den er derefter kraftigt humlet med sorterne Columbus, Galena og Challenger. Malt, humle og alkohol giver tilsammen en intens aroma af vinøs frugtighed, bitter chokolade og mørk karamel, en natsort farve samt en mørk fyldig beigefarvet skumkrone. Bør serveres ved 10 – 12 grader.

Marko (3115) - Split, CROATIA - SEP 23, 2010
Bottle from either fiulijn or Papsoe, whoever it was HUGE thanks! Poured a black body with a small off white head. Coffee, peach, sweet rubber gum, sweet but relatively fresh. The taste kicks out really bitter, crudely so in the beginning, showing some vaguely aromatic herbal hints and grinding into dust a nice sof roasty maltiness. Slightly yoghurty. Overall a pretty good stout but too hopped.

hellbilly (3053) - scottsdale über alles, Arizona, USA - JUL 31, 2010
sweet looking bottle via dakine on 6/6/10. the last of the night. bb9/4/10. orange shade of black. smells of green peppers, black peppercorns, roast, sweet grain, molasses, mud and wet wood. the taste is a mix of the aroma... a little salty, muddy, twigs, tar, molasses, smoke and a spicy finish. it is far sweeter than need be... thick full body is aided by hop and alcohol dryness. 7/4/7/3/14/3.5

From notes. Black/dark brown, small off white head. Roast, smoke, chocolate, old wood, dried dark fruits, subtle oxidation. Tastes a little over the hill, but still very nice. Medium body, smooth, a bit thinned by age. Would have loved to try a fresh bottle.
