The Roman Empire had a certain “je ne sais quoi” festive food culture, extravagant architecture and spectacular live entertainment. Some might argue the Emperors were brutal, mad and hungry for power, and the people vain when taking baths and working out all day. Listen – that’s still all part of the secret Imperial ingredient – keep it cool, clean, confident, arrogant and flamboyant. Forza Imperiale.

Semmi hab, fekete szín. Csokis, kakaós,aszalt gyümölcsös illat, némi kávéval. Csokis, kakaós, kávés, aszalt gyümölcsös ízek. Testes, leheletnyit édeskés, alig szénsavas, közepesen és inkább kávésan mint komlósan keserű. Az imperial stoutok mintapéldánya.

16oz can from Brewer's Haven Dark brown black pour thin brief coarse tan head. Big sweet roast, cinnimon, licorice and plenty of residual sugars. A desert sipper and a big ABV hit. Quite delicious.

Bottle from the Craft webshop. Very dark brown/black colour, thick golden head which fades. Feels oily in the mouth, thick and boozy. Aroma is booze, dark, dark fruits, very roasty, dark chocolate, bit of coffee, the usual I guess. Taste is similar, but high on the fruitiness. Christmas cake elements, but boozy fruit, rather than spices. Nice bitterness at the finish. Dark chocolate, brown sugar. Nice.

0.65 l bottle from 'Saveur Bière', cellared for almost three years. Pitch black with a thin, frothy, almost stable, light brown head. Sweetish-malty, gently roasty and slightly fruity aroma of praline, blueberry, some coffee and a touch of licorice. Rather sweet, malty, gently roasty and slightly fruity taste of praline, coffee, blueberry, cocoa, hazelnut and a touch of vanilla, followed by a medium long, moderately roasty-bitter, minimally earthy and a bit powdery finish. Medium to full body, smooth and slightly oily mouthfeel, very soft carbonation. Very pleasant, quite tasty Stout. Fairly sweet, a bit artificial maybe, also probably not meant to age, still held up well.

From a 473ml can on 3/6/2019. Pours a deep, deep brown with a medium head. The nose is primarily light chocolate and coffee. In the mouth, it's massively sweet - milk chocolate, cocoa, caramel, lactose and vanilla, along with a touch of coffee and a good dash of the advertised almonds. Finishes with a very modest bitterness. The texture is slick and slick with softish carbonation. Perhaps not super special like the Big Ass Money I downed yesterday, but still a really good, if quite straight forward, dessert impy.
