An imperial stout first brewed in 2015 by Fyne Ales who collaborated with Brouwerij De Molen in the Netherlands. The response was so successful that this beer has been made a permanent addition to Fyne's range. Mills & Hills is a rich, malty stout with lots of treacle and chocolate characters. This complex combination of malts and hops creates a full flavoured beer which is perfect for cold, wintry nights.

Best before end of January 2020 on the bottle's label.
Pours pitch black, small head of tan foam, some lacing.
Smells strong, loaded with roasted malt, coffee, dark chocolate, anise is there but mild. Dark fruit rounds it out.
Roasted malt and dark fruit dominate the taste. Coffee sneaks up on me and becomes a major player. Bits of toffee and a mild sweetness that I possibly attribute to milk chocolate? Not sure on that.
Mouthfeel sure feels.. full. Kinda creamy, alcohol isn't hidden well; in the taste and after the swallow.
All in all, it's a very good sipper.

Aus der Flasche am 2016-05 getrunken. Hier haben die Brauer von Fyne Ales und De Molen ein Spitzen Imjnperial Stout zusammen gebraut! Wunderbar harmonisch und stimmig. Eine schöne Alternative zum Dessert!

12oz bottle pours a viscous black with plenty of creamy brown head. Nose has raisins and molasses, booze, malt, licorice, a little jammy. Flavor is quite meaty, black pudding and wild boar sausage, big with sweet black licorice and molasses, chocolate covered raisins. Full bodied and a touch sweet. Everything you want in an imperial stout.
