This is a bigger and bolder version of our classic imperial stout Idjit. So, what does that make this beer then? An imperialer (it’s a word) stout? A more imperial stout? Let’s just say it’s big. Big idjit!
For a long time, almost since our very beginning, we’ve brewed our iconic imperial stout Idjit. We’ve not only brewed the regular version but barrel aged versions, putting it in everything from whisky to bourbon barrels. We’ve done a Christmas version and even a half version in which we cut the ABV down a bit. What we’ve never done (commercially) is a maxed out version. Well, until now that is. We’ve wanted to do this beer for a long time, an Idjit with extra everything. A straight forward big, bigger, biggest imperial stout. No fuss, just thick malty loveliness.

Draught @ Borefts 2019 Aroma has strong cocoa notes and some licorice. Flavour has strong cocoa, licorice, some spiciness and saltiness. A tad too salty but still excellent stuff.

Kicsi, gyorsan elillanó barna hab, fekete szín. Csokis, kávés, kakaós illat, halvány aszalt gyümölcsös beütéssel. Csokis, kakaós-kakaóporos, kávés ízek, némi aszalt gyümölcsös, konyakos aromával. Leheletnyit édes, testes, enyhén szénsavas, erősen keserű. Kiváló imperial stout.

Black beer, beige head. Sweet, boozy aroma. Flavour is malt, dark chocolate, anise, with a proper soft creaminess to it and a nice, warming boozy finish. Big lovely rich imperial.
