9/5/2026. Can shared by LazyPyro, cheers Chris! Pours black, minimal head. Aroma is coffee, chocolate, vanilla, roasted, camp coffee, bourbon. Medium sweet, moderate roasted bitterness, light alcohol tart. Very smooth, medium to full body, low carbonation. Gives a warming boozy tingle to finish. Enjoyed this.

440ml can from Left Field Beer, Solihull and shared in Kuala Lumpur. Poured almost black in colour with a thin, broken, off-white head. The aroma is roasty, herbal. The flavour is over moderate sweet, with a big, rich, roasty, earthy, herbal, light tonka, dry coffee, liquorice bitter palate. Over medium bodied with soft carbonation.

CBHWS2026. Black colour, small beigeish brown head. Aroma is mildly toasted and roasted tones with some chocolaty and mild coffee tones. Flavour is coffee, roasted malts, some nutty aelements and mild vanilla. Fermented quite dry, so not a super sweet Impy for once. Very drinkable. The coffee grows as the beer gets warmer in the glass.

440ml can. Pours a very dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma of creamy coffee, chocolate, vanilla. Taste is as expected, coffee, vanilla and chocolate, sweet but enough roast malt/coffee bitterness for some balance. Medium-ish bodied, lighter than expected for a stout of this strength.

Draught keg at the Smithfield, Derby. Very dark brown, a little translucent with a swirlof tan head. Light aroma, I'm straining a bit but ultimately getting brown sugar, espresso, custard. Tastes sweet but doesn't run away with the sweetness. There a coffee-inspired bitterness setting in quickly and riding all the way to the finish. Gooey thick body with low to medium carbonation. Exciting stuff for sure and doesn't taste anywhere near 12%.
