Horsens Imperial Oaked Stout

A Mes rate. Bottle at the Kulminator.
Black with a tan head. Lots of chocolate powder, black malt and raw oak. A little one dimensional if you ask me. The oak is not particularly integrated and seems like a late addition. Oak and chocolate but not in balance. Still a good beer, just feels like it had a bit more to give.

Bottle at Jesper’s. Pours an opaque black. Smells of oak, burned malts, alcohol and vanilla. medium to soft carbonation. Sweet and slightly malty sourness. Aromas of caramel, chocolate and some vanilla. Hints of dark fruits. Also aromas of burned malts towards the end. Medium bodied. Medium to soft carbonation. Malty and roasted finish.

EBF08. Black with a small beige head. Aroma is sweet round dark malt, blackberry, chocolate and liquorish. Flavour is roasted malt. liquorish and notes of chocolate.

Draft. A black beer with a brown head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt, wood, and alcohol. The flavor is sweet with notes of wood, roasted malt, and alcohol, as well as a touch of ginger, leading to adry woody finish.

Black colored with medium sized beige head. Rich vanilla aroma with oaky roastiness, thin licorice and smoke also present. Medium to full bodied. Flavor is also very oaky with similar vanilla, aftertaste dries strongly with chocolate still. Not in full balance, anyhow good beer.

Bottled@Timo A. Black colour, medium beige head. Aroma is lots of wooden, vanillaish, roasted malts, alcohol and some smoked notes. Also some nutty notes. Flavour is roasted, some smoked and alcohol, peat, smoked wood, malts. Words aren’t even enough. Gets better when going warmer.

Rim of little bubbles on black beer with foxy rim. Olives - black ones - and some smoked malt, hint of coffee. Flavourwise, the water of the same black olives, but way more smoked malts here; ends on stout grains, as well as coffee. Thick MF, creamy, but not completely full-bodied. A very good, if not utterly-Imperial Stout - and maybe all the better for it.

Bottle thx to Bri. Pitch black with a medium sized brown head. Quite roasted and malty with notes of hops, wood, vanilla and chocolate. A bit too much liqourice for my taste. But prettty good.
