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.

Pours dark black, thin tan head. Aroma is very malty and sweet, oats, some alcohol. Taste is thick, meaty, almost gravy like in texture. A sweetness of boiled sweets balances out the malty bitterness, also an odd taste a bit like iron filings. Malty and bitter lingering finish. Pretty damn good.

Tap @ The Rover. Black with a beige lasting head. The aroma is superb, plenty of cocoa, coffee, just hints of licorice. It’s full bodied yet very drinkable, salty, balanced, with an almost endless lingering end.

11.2 Oz bottle purchased at Knightly Spirits in Orlado. So I though my nose was playing tricks on me. I just had Mephistopheles and Oscar smells very similar. There is a big whole whallop of coffee in the aroma, followed by some spice. But the flavor on this one is so delicate and fluffy. It just goes down so smooth and ends with a very good chocolate flavor. SO how come this isn’t labeled as a foreign stout?

[1916-20081220] 11.2floz bottle. Burnt coffee ground roast aroma. Dark brown black body with a medium-lasting creamy tan head. Roasted grounds and heavy malt flavour has lots of burnt roasty fullness. Full body. Good and drinkable.

Orlando, Fl. - Knightly Spirits - 11.2 oz bottle. Dark black pour with some purple tints - light khaki head that diminishes pretty quickly. Pleasant aroma of coffee, chocolate with hints of molasses. Good, solid stout flavor with plenty of bitter coffee notes, some bitter bakers unsweetened chocolate and just a hint of dates and raisins. Mouthfeel is clean and smooth. Very enjoyable and not overpowering.

Bottle. Black color, with a large brown head. The nose was sweet and malty, coffee and a hint of smoke. Taste roasted malt, with coffee, roasted coffee(maybe a bid tobacco) with some dryed fruit short of hiding. Great aroma a bid disapointing taste for an imperial stout.
