Commercial Description:
Danish: Russian Imperial Stout har sit navn tilbage fra zartiden i Rusland. Denne kulsorte øl var zarhoffets foretrukne. Vi har tilladt os at give denne klassiske øl en lille drejning i retning af vores smag. Der er brugt tørverøget malt og tilsat et stænk friskbrygget colombiansk kaffe. Hvornår kan man så drikke denne øl ? Traditionelt er stout jo betragtet som dessertøl. Det er vores erfaring, at det er synd for øllet hvis desserten er af den søde slags. Prøv den til bløde oste eller chokolade med min. 70 pct kakao. Men Hornbeer Russian Imperial Stout går altså også fint alene!

Completly black with a small dark brown head. Aroma is coffee galore along with hard roasted malts. Body is suprisingly mediocre compared to the powerfull aroma, has a good amount of bitter roasted notes and again fresh coffee.

Bottled at EBF08. Black with a small, beige head. Vanilla and milky chocolate in the aroma. A bit too sweet flavour. Soft and smooth palate. Milky chocolate and slightly salty flavour.

100ml from a bottle at EBF 08. Very cool label art. Pours a body dark as pitch, with a brownish top. Roasted smell of dark chocolate. Mixed flavour of anise, coffee and cocoa. Very smooth and rather dry in the mouth. Noticeable alcohol. Another pleasant Danish stout! (Copenhagen, 14.09.2008).

0.5 l bottle.Black color with small head. Strong coffee aroma with also charcoal, licorice, tobacco and hints of soil. Coffee, charcoal, licorice and firm bitterness in the flavor. Long dryish licorice finish. Fairly tasty but licorice and coffee flavors are somewhat overpowering.

[EBF @ Copenhagen, September 2008] Average brown creamy head that mostly lasted. Good display of lacework. Pitch black color. Aroma of strong roasted malt, chocolate, hint of smoke, liquorish, mild coffee and alcohol. Medium to almost full bodied with an average carbonation and somewhat thick alcoholic texture. Moderated to heavy bitter flavor with good counter sweetness. Lingering dry and bitter finish.

Small brown head does not last. Opaque black body. Burnt wheaty coffee aroma with grainy notes. Sweetish alcoholic fruity citric taste with burnt grainy notes. Some alcohol heat. Soft mouthfeel. Dry grainy burnt chocolate and coffee aftertaste. A bit fizzy. Nice, but not outstanding. (0.1l taster draft at EBF ’08.)
