As its name indicates, this beer is not one for snacks or meals but instead goes down like a peach at dessert to which it is perfectly suited. Black as the night with few clouds in sight, this Imperial Stout gives off sweet scents of malt, chocolate, vanilla, roasted caramel and cake. Chocolate, roasted cocoa, vanilla and cake blend into a sweet and lasting flavour tinged with drops of bitterness and wrapped in creamy succulence. So good it counts as a dessert in a bottle!

Bottle from Brewcraft at home. Thick dark dark brown pour with some tan sedimentation and minimal to no carbonation. Aroma is slightly sweet, but luckily not as much as I feared, rich cocoa, mocha coffee, burnt sugar, some spice, sort of vaguely Christmas-y but subdued, really nice. Taste is a bit sweeter than aroma - big roasted coffee, mocha, slight cinnamon, dark brown sugar, sweet dried fruit. All works very well and not at all treacly. Rich palate but doesn’t veer into syrupy despite minimal carbonation. Very good. Definitely ranks up there with the best of the beer geek series.

330ml bottle (with upside down label!) from December 2016 - almost 2 years old now. Pours black with a small tan head. Aroma of cocoa, coffee, vanilla, caramel, roast malts. Taste is sweet, dark chocolate, vanilla, caramel, sugar, coffee, roast malts, finish is bittersweet. Full body, creamy, soft carbonation. Absolutely delicious beer, a real pleasure to drink.

Kicsi, örökké tartó hab, fekete szín. Csokis, kávés, kakaós illatok, határozott aszalt szilvás és aszalt cseresznyés vonásokkal valamint egy jó adag vaníliával. Íze az illatát igazolja, csoki, kávé, kakaó, aszalt gyümölcsök, főleg szilava, valamint vanília ízeiben tobzódik, de egyik sem mászik a másik nyakára, jó az egyensúly. Testes, enyhén szénsavas, közepesen keserű. Nagyon finom, kiváló arányokkal operáló sör.

Can with my brother. Pours black with almost no head. Aroma is mild and sweet, roasty with coffee. Big smooth and silky body. Lots of coffee and a nice roasty malty backbone. Very sweet, a nice dessert beer indeed. Rather bitter nevertheless, high hop bitterness and somewhat almond-like bitterness too. Finish is long, sweet and intense. Lovely, a tad too sweet for me.

Omnomnom, true dessert. Thick, sweet and rich. Not just sugar, though: some bitterness, something resembling cookies, chocolate, vanilla, plenty coffee, all in lovely balance. Liquified pudding.
