plovmand (1192), Helsinge, Denmark Jun 2, 2009 Bottle. Black body with a bubbly medium brown head. Roasty bit sweet malty aroma with notes of tobacco and liqorice. Flavour is sweet malty with some roasted malt, liqorice and a bit coffee. Medium bodied. Bit thin but quite ok Impy stout. Defreni (875), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jun 1, 2009 Flaske: Mørk, næsten sort øl, men dog til at se igennem. Flot skum. Duft af molasse. Brændt smag, sødlig. Dejlig mundfylde med små stikkende bobler der komplementere bitterhumlen. chrisv10 (127), Denmark May 20, 2009 A very nice looking and tasting beer but the aroma is very bland. It’s one of those Imperial Stout I can drink several of without getting tired of it.
Beer2000 (1619), Kristiansand, Norway Jan 11, 2009 Bottled at Horsens Beerfestival (brewed by Thisted). Black body with a fine brown head. Aroma is roasted, dark malt, liquorices and coffee with soma alcohol. Flavor is sweet, roasted malt, chocolate, coffee, some liquorices and rather bitter with a bittersweet warming alcoholic finish. Very nice, but a bit one dimensional. baggio (164), norrtälje, Sweden Nov 27, 2008 Bottle@home
Apperance: Very, very, dark brownish with a 2 finger brown head and some lacing.
Aroma: Licorice, Roasted Malts, Caramel, Hint of metal.
Flavor: Bitter coffee with a hint of cream, Chocolate, Molasses, Rye, Hint of dark fruit.
Palate: Very dry and ashy but with a touch of sweetness to it. Low carbonation. Quite clean.
A really good stout rather than a imperial stout. Nothing i would search out again but i wouldn’t decline one if it was offered to me. Worth a try!
Pinball (2068), Allerød, Denmark Oct 7, 2008 aroma:something sour-sock / sour-milk in there that i don’t like, apart from that major distraction, decent stoutish aroma.
looks : pours dark, dark brown. black in the glass. thick brown-light-brown head.
flavor:balanced, ends up with a delicious , little bit sweet very roasted flavor, the beginning is a bit more tame and slightly fruity. also a very subtle sourish thing (milk from aroma) that i don’t like. the flavor after the initial impression, however, is good.
palate is a little bubbly,
if they could get rid of the sourmilkish thing, this would’ve been a great imp stout. as it is, still good, and a beer to be enjoyed slowly. oh6gdx (7422), Vasa, Finland Sep 26, 2008 Bottled (from Ölkonsortiet, Aalborg). Pitch black colour, mediumsized brown foamy/creamy head. Leaves some lace. Aroma is roasted malts, some caramel and quite nice toffeeish notes. Also some very slight notes of metal. Flavour is mild roast, some caramel and quite bigtime metallicness. Toobad, since the metallic notes in the flavour ruins this beer totally. Atleast when cold. sunevdj (1633), Copenhagen OE, Denmark Sep 15, 2008 On tap @ European Beerfistival. Pours black with a tanned head. Sweet with aromas of roasted malts. Some caramel notes. Tiny hints of metals. Medium carbonation. Medium to heavy body. Slightly sticky mouthfeel. Dry finish again with a hint of metals. Good well-balanced and clean brew with a no-nonsens attitude.
