Did the flavors of sugar and bitter sweet almonds and coffee in Imperial Biscotti Break also make you sentimental? Now we topped it off with insane amounts of doughnuts. This all time American favorite is making it’s way back into the spotlight and we at Evil Twin Brewing are not letting a tasty trend pass us by without taking it to the next level. Drink it with great gusto - Forza Doughnuts.

Really old bottle, possibly 2015, from Utobeer, shared with Dad and James, 15th March 2026. Pours black and thick. Aroma has coffee and roasted malts, liquorice. Taste is still fine, coffee, chocolate, I don’t pick up almonds. Good and has stood the best of time

This big bottle is coming from the sterk Amsterdam, during my 2018 trip there. Time to enjoy it, to drink it quietly, really smooth, toffee, vanilla, roasted malt, coffee, sweet and more dry, depending the moment, boozy, discreet touch of bitterness, hop, 18.08.25, at Epalinges.

As advertised, a classic Evil Twin rich Imperial with added sweetness and breadiness as predicted by the beer name. Simple, rich, sweet and toasty. Coffee, chocolate, toffee and touches of cream and dark berries.

0.65l bottle, shared with friends. Aroma of chocolate, roasted malt, coffee, almond, licorice and alcohol. Pours pitch black color with thin creamy light brown head and fair lacing. Taste starts with sweet and rich roasted malt and chocolate, follows by licorice and dried fruity acidity, mouthfeel is smooth, while finish is very mild bitter. Full body, creamy texture and soft carbonation in palate. Evil donuts…

11/15/17 Aromat czekolady toffi, kawy, wanilii, ciasta piernikowego, kukułki Piana brązowa, czarne nieprzejrzyste Goryczka na średnim poziomie, słodycz wyraźna Nagazowanie duże, ciała sporo ale bez przesady. Gumiaste, lepkie. Finisz czekoladowy, alkoholu nie czuć za bardzo. Ogólnie dobry z różnymi smakami w tle, ale w sumie nic specjalnego.

From tap at Weźże Krafta, Kraków. Aroma is vanilla, candied chocolate, tiramisu, dark malt, fudge, cocoa powder, creme brulee, marzipan. Flavour is heavy candied sweetness. Body is full and rich. Big dessert doughnut extravaganza, very nice.
