En svært mørk russisk imperial stout, brygget med pilsnermalt, sjokolademalt, karamellmalt, røstet bygg og havre. Humlen er Northern Brewer og Chinook. Alegjær gjør dette brygget veldig tungt og fyldig.

Draft at Row 34 Boston, 18 July 2015. Pitch black color with an oily sheen on top the liquid. Aroma is heavy on dark fruit, licorice, and light charred grain.
I thought the texture would be oily after I saw the sheen on the top but it wasn’t, more charred grain then any other nuance. However, licorice, dark chocolate, plum and raisin are found. Slight warming after the sip with only mild alcohol noticeable. Body is on the larger side of medium. This may do better with some time to mellow out but even as is, I feel it’s slightly above average. Nice way to round out a night of drinking.

Bottle from The Beerhive. Dark brown body with a medium tan head. Light lacing marks. Aroma of wood, dark chocolate and Coco Pops. Flavour of digestives, cocoa and fig. Medium to thick body with a powdery texture. Soft fizz. This is a touch too sweet for my liking. It reminds me of Courage Russian Imperial Stout.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Max’s place. Thanks kerenmk. Black with a tan head. Aroma of roast, chocolate, liqueur, a bit of soy sauce, and some dark fruits. Sweetish and slightly tart flavor with roast, chocolate, dark fruits, a salty soy sauce hint, and a bitterish finish with a bit of alcohol notes. Medium-bodied, strange tingling carbonation.

Keg at the brewery during the Lervig Tap takeover. 25/04/2015. Aroma is malty, nutty, praline, little smoke, earthy wood. Dark mahogany / brown coloured pour with a thin mid tan head. Flavour is composed of dark roast, toast, dark roasted grains, salty mineral. Nice smooth layered roast. Palate is full bodied, highish carbonation. Biting earthy roast in the finish.

(Bottle) Black colour with brief, frothy, brown head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of dark chocolate, coffee, black rye bread, liquorice, some soy sauce and a touch of dried fruit. Malty, roasted taste with dark chocolate, strong black coffee, black rye bread, soy sauce, dried fruit (raisins), a hint of smoke and a generous cacao bitterness in the finish. Almost full body, with a certain sweetness. Rounded mouthfeel. Tasty and quite powerful, still in very good balance. Very nice.
