Idjit is a potent imperial stout, black as the night and dark as sin. Loaded with roasted malts and the perfect amount of bittering hops, it is as smooth as it is powerful. A beer you can count on, any time, any where.
This beer started out as an experiment. Mikael likes to tell the story like this: One of our brewers wanted to see how strong a beer we could brew (at our old brewery in Mölndal). The result was a 16% imperial stout which according to Mikael was super gross; Too much of everything, unbalanced. An idiot beer if you will. However, after a few tries of scaling the recipe down and tweaking it a bit, getting the malt bill just right, we had made our idiot into our Idjit. And as we all know, Idjits rule!

Bottle at Café Derat, Utrecht. Aroma is roasted malt, lots of chocolate, coffee, touch of mocha and liquorice. Flavour is moderate to medium sweet with some roasty bitterness in the finish. Body is medium to full, rich and thick. Tasty stuff!

can. black as hell. has a little metallic notes on nose, but otherwise a pretty perfect modern imperial stout. roasty, coffyish, full bodied, but with good acidity, bitters to clear out the palate on exit. drinks nicely enough in other words.

330ml. Alko web. Opaque colour, small beige head. Roasted, cocoa aroma. Medium to full-bodied. Smooth with toasted malts, cocoa, coffee. More sweet than dry Imperial Stout. Touch of alcohol. Kind of basic.
