TEJA (143), Stockholm, Sweden Oct 5, 2008 Bottle from 2007. Big light brown foam that slowly goes down to a lace. Nice smoth chocolate aroma and some dried fruit. The taste have a nice chocolate maltinessbut not to big body to be a imperial stoute. An propriate bitterness with just a hint of residual sugars to balance. No burnt malts present in the taste so I would say it is more of a porter than stoute. Still a nice beer. Beer_2000 (1269), Kristiansand, Norway Oct 3, 2008 330 ml bottle.
