Fin (3382), Merton, Oxfordshire, England Dec 27, 2007 Bottle, picked up from The Hop Duvel, Gent and consumed 26-12-07 Poured a very dark reddy amber colour with white head. The aroma was sweet malts with sourness around the edges. Tasted roasty with burnt wood dominating initially only to subside to reveal good hops, sourness again, quite tangy but to be fair the sweetness holds firm against all of these other tastes. This is a very interesting and unusual Imperial Stout.
deflagro (8), Lund, Sweden does not count Nov 9, 2009 Bottle. Light, red-brown liquid with a very large head. Smell is filled with sweet malt with some notes of rotten salad. Taste is mostly rotten sallad, with some roasted notes and an aftertaste that is dominated by alcohol. This is neither a stout nor a good beer. GonZoBeeR (2156), ste-Eulalie, Quebec, Canada Nov 8, 2009 Aroma:Belgian yeats,fruity...
Appearance:mega huge head,Hazy dark redish-brown....
Flavor:dark,fruit,chocolate,blegian yeast,alcohol.... syton98 (40), USA Nov 8, 2009 A nice "light" imperial. This beer pours deep brown with a huge head. Its nose is carmel with hints of belgium yeast. Taste is full bodied but light...kinda like a belgium tripple but with more complex darker flavors. Flavor lasts and wants you to drink more. All in all a nice beer when you want some of a stouts flavor with out the heaviness. MrChopin (621), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 6, 2009 Red-brown pour, large fluffy cream head. Definitely Belgian nose of elderberry, chocolate, plum. and raisin. Heavy malt flavor, fruit, and light pepper. Lightly bitter, creamy finish. Not particularly interesting or poor, just middle of the road. crowderm (275), Recklinghausen, Germany Oct 26, 2009 Let me begin by saying that this is not a stout. Brown pour, off-white head. Aroma of dark fruits and chocolate. The flavor is somewhat similar, though there is a strange hint of tropical fruit hopiness as well. Smooth. Pretty good brew. altonbrownd (1862), Amsterdam, Netherlands Sep 26, 2009 Bottle from Bierkoning. Dark brown body with tall and lasting head. Sweet, caramel nose. Malty and very spicy taste with chocolate notes. ABV kicks in towards the end, warming. Bragesnak (2223), Aarhus, Denmark Sep 22, 2009 From Voldby, DK.
Bottled, 200909.
Dark brown with beige head. Aroma of roasted malt and spices. Flavor is spiced with notes of dark fruit and liqourice. Skinnyviking (4142), Copenhagen, Denmark Sep 21, 2009 Bottle. Love the label with a horse in a parachute! High fluffy and lasting off-white head leaving nice long lacings. Hazy dark red body. Malty straw aroma with a strange spicy note that I cannot quite figure out. Sweet malty flavor with a bit of liquorice and a dry bitterness as well as some spicy notes. Still cannot quite figure it out but not unpleasant. Low carbonation. Complex and long bittersweet aftertaste.
