Can day 19 beer of my Mr Hop advent beer calender, direct from Mr Hop webshop Venray Netherlands. Consumed Wednesday 24th December 2025, Christmas Eve. We're had Nidi di Tagliatelle al forno (baked pasta nests) listening to Anna B Savage on Tidal. A solid imperial stout, very much ticking all the boxes, pours pitch black, little or no head. Yep taste is a text book imperial stout a sort of do it by numbers Impy', roasty, chocolate, smooth, a little caramel, fudge and hints of coffee and vanilla on the nose, a little background woodiness. This never strays far from the textbook version and whilst this niggles me a little as I would like to see a little more individuality and something that lifts this from the mainstream, I guess that is also confirmation they can brew to style perfectly. Good beer just a tad too safe. Score 6.9
