On tap at Craft Covent Garden. Black beer lasting tan head. Really chocolate coffee intense imp stout with Molasses prunes and plums. Liquorice aroma. Juicy impy stout rather than dry. Dry finish though. Not keen on the liquorice but thats just my preference. The rest is pretty decent. Hides abv fairly well. Ok .

200ml on tap at Sorbon. Almost pitch back body. Espresso head reduced to a patchy layer. Dotted spots on the glass. Mild roasted dark malty nose, impact of chocolate, liquorice, and molasses. Rich taste of vanilla chocolate alongside moments of cocoa and molasses. Delicate bitterness to a lingering finish, slightly roasted coffee beans to it. Full bodied. Lovely sipper (Bromma, Stockholm 14.08.2016).

Black with a dark brown head. Roasty aroma with a plummy fruitiness. Strong, muscular impy palate, roasty and a bit boozy, with intense molasses and burnt liquorice. Lots of bitterness, too. Good imperial stout

Keg at Craft Clapham, Saturday 13th February 2016 Black in colour with a mid sized beige head. This is an absolute beast of a beer, glorious, thick in the mouth, chewy, ash, some tobacco, burnt nuttiness, like an oil slick in the mouth but strangely not so in the glass. This is a belter, but bloody hefty. Great stuff. A7 A4 T8 P4 Ov15 3.8

Imperial stout with creamy, dense, lacing, mocha coloured, moussy head over a very dark burgundy coloured beer, as good as black. Aroma of cured meat, baker’s chocolate, pipe tobacco, bayleaf, black coffee grounds but not too strong, caramel candy, black olive, kahlua, candied dates, seaweed, salmiak, natural ’iron’. Taste starts very umami-like, meaty, dried porcini, subtle sweetness of raisins and figs poured over it, deep sourish accent, thick and viscous mouthfeel, caramelly and chocolatey maltiness but dry, with a mouth-filling coffeeish roasted bitterness, strong and a bit ashy, further supported by a firm peppery, herbal and leafy hop bitterness, very long and dry, with a glow of warming, liqueurish alcohol following. Very dry, clean, thick and filling ’impy’, hugely enjoyed this.

Bottle at the Return of Old Spice tasting, Dec 2015, Den Haag. Poured a clear dark brown with a round bubbly light tan head. The aroma is light sweet malt, light dry coffee. The flavour is moderate sweet with a rich, smooth, liqourice, alcoholic, malt, light chocolate palate. Medium to full bodied with soft carbonation.
