Commercial Description:
Nils Oscar Imperial Stout is brewed only in a limited edition. Also Nils Oscar Imperial Stout was awarded as the best beer in the world. This beer is brewed with many varieties of hops and malt, nothing saved to make the stout full of character. Imperial Stout is best enjoyed combined with the dessert but works wonderfully with oysters. The Nils Oscar Imperial Stout can be enjoyed today but preferably mature a couple of years.

From a 500ml bottle shared by badgerben, pours an opaque dark brown brew with a thin tan head that quickly dissipates to a thin film. Aroma of toasted dark malt, dark chocolate, a touch of licorice and some coffee. Taste is full bodied, very little carbonation with flavors of toasted dark malt, more chocolate flavor than coffee with some dark pitted fruits. Finish remains a thick texture with a slow disappearing toasted malt aftertaste. A solid impy throughout.

Black color with a medium head. Very strong coffee, oak, toasted malt and chocolate aroma. A bunch of strong malt taste. Some mint or spearmint as well. Bitter roasted malt. Very solid.

great strong aroma. coffee, licirce, roasted stuff. pitch black with small yellow head. taste is roasted stuff, charchoal, fruits, reminds me of beer geek’s breakfast and ølfabrikken porter. aftertaste is very nice, good blend. well balanced although the roasted notes dominate. great stout. lots of taste for a 7% alc. i downed 2/3 of the bottle while rating cause it’s sooo drinkable..

The aroma is roasted with malt, cream, coffee, and chocolate. The appearance is dark brown with an average head. The flavor is like the aroma but burnt. The palate is smooth. Overall it’s good.

33cl. Opaque with a creamy one-finger head that lasts. Coffee, milk chocolate and light charred wood in the nose. Complex flavors of milk chocolate, raisin, fig, metallic molasses, prickly-sweet herbs, coffee, dried hickory, sour cream, char, caramel and smoke. Heavy body is mostly smooth, but a bit frothy with carbonation at times, tingly and dry on the long roasty finish. Best FS (by far) I have sampled to date.

Bottle. Dark rich chocolate aroma with some nuts there also. Black body with tan head. Flavor reminded me of an oatmeal stout. Flavor had a sweetness to it that was typical of a Foreign stout. Smooth and easy on the palate, good beer.

This black ale poured with a creamy tan head and a strong roasted malt aroma. There is a chewy chocolate and coffee flavor that is intense, yet not overwhelming. This is a very smooth drink with nothing but good flavors.
