26-NOV-2011, bottle @home, from "Barleywine".
Dark, dark brown with lasting fine brown high head.
X-mas nose with the usual stuff, cinnamon, clove.
Taste the same with some brown sugar and a litte roasted malts.
Overall not os much an imperial porter.
Anyway a nice X-mas brew, although the spices are a bit overdone.

Black beer with a creamy brown disappearing head. Aroma of liquor, caramel and chocolate. Chocolate and caramel in the mouth. Sweetish and at the end alcohol popps up.
