/////Botella de 33 cl en el lúpulo en 10-09-2014 en el momento -- etiquetado nuevo mas elegante y sofisticado pero algo soso -- Lote L59 hasta 07-2016. seria conveniente tomar las dos juntas,, tal vez esta nueva tirada sea algo mas especiada, con toques de vainillas mas acentuados y menos cacao que la anterior. Cuerpo medio con 10vol que le dan una buena sensación licorosa. No cambia nota. Bastante buena. ///// Botella de 33 cl en el Lupulo. Octubre de 2012. ---Antiguo etiquetado con un tío saltando sobre una taza de chocolate----Muy buena imperial porter con gran sabor tostado, chocolate y cacao. Cuerpo medio fácil de beber, creo debería tener un poco más de densidad. Sus 10.5 vol y la facilidad de su paso por boca la convierten en una bomba para la cabeza. Muy buena e imprescindible repetir.

Bottle. Pours black with a brown head that lasts throughout the beer. Aroma has a very deep roast with a bit of licorice, dark grains and a hint of bitter coffee. Flavor has a good amount of chocolate with roasted malts and a backbone of earthy dark grains

Pours a fairly opaque dark brown with the faintest of garnet highlights at the edges and a huge fluffy tan head that takes forever to recede. Aromas of dark bitter chocolate, roasted coffee, hints of licorice, a touch of dark pitted fruit, tobacco, and brown sugar. Light bit of earthy hop aroma is faint but there. The flavor is roasted creamed coffee, with hints of caramel and dark chocolate. A light vanilla sweetness creeps in midway with a slight touch of cardboard and a warming alcohol presence. Lingering roasted grain and earthy hop flavor and bitterness linger long after each sip. Medium to thick body with a creamy velvety smooth mouthfeel and a light level of carbonation. Feels like a milk stout at times, only bigger. The roast is strong in this one and I would have liked a hint more fruity character. Still this is a very nice beer.
