4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20Bottle @ Dan’s house. Can’t remember if rené brought this or not, but thanks either way. Dark brown appearance with a tan head. A bit peaty smoky, charred, roasty malty aroma. Burnt, a bit organic smoky, light anise, chocolate, roasty malty flavor. This one is quite nice.

4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Noire comme une nuit sur la basse Côte-Nord, où une mousse capiteuse qui s’affaire à confectionner une dentelle d’écume aux parois en se résorbant. Elle dégage des arômes de mélasse, de tire-éponge et de tourbière et ce, harmonieusement. Une balade en forêt l’automne est l’impression que j’ai en la buvant. Des pointes de bois sec, de lichen ou encore de sirop d’érable ambré. Ça circule bien à sa guise et ça réussi à faire passer inaperçu son taux d’alcool, pourtant relativement élevé.

3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
500 ml. bottle. Pours a thick, well retained, beige head, with some lacing, over a black (SRM 35) body.......nose is cocoa, chocolate, lighter of coffee, hints of dried fruit.....taste is sweet, with light plum, raisin, chocolate, light vanilla, finishing with a moderate bitterness......mouth feel thick, chewy, lightly astringent, alcohol hidden, carbonation adds tingle. This is a pleasant, nicely balanced Imperial Stout. It is somewhat sweeter than many, and lacks the very complex malt backbone of the best. BJCP 8/3/14/4/7

En riktig goding. Fyllig, mörk och balanserad mellan smakerna av sötma och beska. Mycket chokladsmak.

4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Batch IS 0001. Aged bottle pours brown black with khaki head. urs brown black with khaki head. Roasted aromas with some sweet fruitiness and wooden must. The fruits jump with dark tree fruits and the roasted malt. All under it there is some leather and oak with a hint of vanilla to linger with the bittersweet grains and fruits. A slightly creamy finish seals the deal as a great drinking stout. Very nice and gets smoother with time.

3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle - 500ml. Opaque black body with a thick beige creamy head. Well balanced malty/hoppy aroma with grainy, chocolate, and brown sugar hints. Alcohol is very well hidden. Its wonderful, complex malty/hoppy taste carries chocolate, fruity, and vineous notes. Ends with a long, warming bittersweet finish. Very good example of Imperial Stout.

15cl sample, from bottle @München Braukunst Live (MBL 09/03/2013). - Very solid, drinkable typical ImpStout with more of a pronounced caramel, dark roasted malt than a bittering hop profile, in line more with UK than US traditions (Samuel Smith): aka brewed to enjoy, not to recoil in awe from. ABV very well hidden. Democratically, creamily in between solid main land and insular traditions, just like Midtfyn?
Tak for snakket og prøven, Eddie!
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
(bottle) pours black in colour with a creamy light-brown head. aroma of milk chocolate, popcorn, gooseberries and melted butter, with a hint of herbal hops and some very light bretty funk. flavour is very sweet, with lots of chocolate, caramel and a herbal-hoppy finish. medium to heavy-bodied with soft carbonation. much too sweet.
