Russian Imperial Oatmeal Stout. If thrown in the old jailhouse, this is the beer we cook. Jailhouse Brew is complex and opaque like the story that got us locked up. It’s coffee, smoke and body salts behind iron bars, and it’s strong enough to get us out again.

At a tasting, thanks, small stable creamy brown head, dark brown color with reddish taints, aroma of chocolate, cocoa, hint of mud and a whiff of vanila, flavor of dark bread, metal, chocolate and a earthy hint in the back. Nice but not too exciting.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Max’s place. Thanks Max. Black with a tan head. Aroma of roast, chocolate, coffee, nuts. Sweet flavor with chocolate, roast, some coffee, caramel, a bit of nuts, and a bitterish finish with a light alcoholic note. Medium to full-bodied. Very nice and smooth.

Roasty sweetbitter aftertaste, alcohol notes, full-bodied, velvet mouthfeel, creamy texture, soft carbonation. Very good, smooth and tasty, perhaps a wee bit too sweet.

330ml at home. Completely black with a tiny amount of mocha foam. Complex aroma, loads of coffee, some chocolate, a hint of mint and maybe some raisins. Liquorice? Taste is coffee, chocolate, some dark berries, treacle and caramel. Coffee dominates but other flavours come through nicely. A hint of smoke. Beer is nicely balanced, very sweet but also bitter. Extremely drinkable. Has a nice warming finish. Some oakiness in the finish too! Enjoy this one a lot.

Tap at Erzbierschof Zurich. Aroma is dominated by coffee and cassis, dark dried fruit, plums. Changes completely on the tongue: Still sweet and powerful, yet more chocolate and not fruitiness left. Heavy and strong, but balanced and smooth, matching bitterness. Nice!
