Aus der Dose (bbe 18.08.2024) im 2022-03 getrunken. Diese Stout kommt mit einer sehr kräftigen Schaumbildung daher. Auch wenn es ein wunderbar cremiges Mundgefühl sind diese kräftige hochprozentigen, sehr bittere Schokoladen-Aromen schon eine Herausforderung und mir etwss zu bitter für ein Stout wie ich es gern habe. In der Nase ist sogar eine Hopfenaroma zu entdecken was dann die Bitterkeit der Schokolade noch gesteigert hat. Ein sehr gut gemachtes Stout nur etwas bitter.

Can from Beer Republic webshop, Nr Breda, Netherlands, has this during a 4hour Zoom chat with Scott and Mandy, we had a nice Lamb Biryani meal for tea. Pours black with a slim to medium light beige head. Roasted malts on the nose, also picking up some hoppiness, lots of chocolate and little rolling tobacco. These four attributes are also present in the mouth along with some rich coffee and sweet liquorice, very good no nonsense Imperial Stout.

12 fl oz can from hopt.it, France. Pours black with fine brown foam. Aroma is coffee, slightly nutty. Body is full, with average carbonation. Taste is markedly bitter for a stout, with a long and herbaceous final.

Deep, dark brown, near balck, with a frothy tan head and roasted malt and mellow cocoa on the nose. Smooth and creamy, with a taste of roasted malt and hints of chocolate and coffee, and a nice dry bitterness in the finish

Can from hopt. pitch dark, smooth brown to dark brown head. aroma is old fashioned heavy roasted malts, chocolate, fainter toffee. dark and i must say i am about ripe for something not pastry stoutish right now. aroma also has some wood. it's really good and bring back good memories from when dark strong beers were brutal and uncomplicated. flavor is roasted malts, faint licorice, bitterness from flowery us style hops, a bit thin, it is almost bordering black ipa, the hops are surely there, just barely hidden so they become part of the overall flavor. palate feeling is a little bit watery. great imp. stout, but lacks some more body.

Can from Sai Liquor at home. Dark deep brown pour with cola edges. Aroma is rich dark chocolate and toasted coffee and alcohol. Taste is dark chocolate bittersweet with alcohol warmth and some dark bread. Palate is light for an imperial stout but good. Some tingly bitterness on the finish with alcohol warmth. Quite good
