A small bottle from the tasting room in Rotterdam, drunk at Dad’s place while home on holiday: barrel-aged in Aultmore. Aroma: great: sherry, chocolate liqueurs, coffee. Appearance: opaque cola, no head to speak of. Palate: full-bodied and oily on the tongue, soft carbonation; finish is long lasting, well-roasted. Taste: lightly sweet with plenty of malt-loaf; more chocolate and coffee. Lacks complexity, but big alcohol kick makes this a winner for me.

Beer opens with a vigorous phhht and pours opaque black brown and throws a big tan head. Airy palate, mildly dry, good fine carbonation. Fluffy dark malts, a decent amount of dark malt cream and a pleasant blend of fairly sweet chocolate and coffee. Touch of dark fruits. Some biscuity sweetness in the light smooth finish. Pretty sweet Impy then but drinkable in small quantities.

33cl Bottle, thanks Christos! Black colour, beige-brown head. Aroma of sweet soy sauce, liquorice, treacle, dark chocolate, brown sugar, molasses, very sweet, just a hint of roast and mocha. Flavour is sweet, liquorice, soy sauce, molasses, light roast, dark chocolate, dark fruits, plums, bittersweet sugary finish. Full bodied. Very sweet, lacks roast. Really don’t understand the high marks for this series.

Bottle shared. Near black with an extremely short lived beige head. Aroma of roast, licorice, light herbs, ash, malt, caramel, light wood and toffee. Flavour is moderate to heavy sweet. Medium to light full bodied with soft carbonation.

Bottle at THT thanks to MariusPoenari. Almost black with small dark beige head. Lots of sweet malts, licorice, sweet berries, sherry, goat droppings, fake chocolate, brown sugar, cognac. Very sweet with quite light bitterness. Full bodied with slick oily feel and soft carbonation.

33cl bottle. Pitch black pour with a fine tan head with OK retention. Smells of milk chocolate, cocoa, leather, roasted malts. Tastes bitter sweet, with notes of caramel, toffee, milk chocolate, cocoa, peanut butter, vanilla ice cream and mild whiskey. Soft mouthfeel and medium-low carbonation. An outstanding Russian imperial stout.
