Finally, been hoping for this one for years, and it did not disappoint. Honey, licorice, salty, sweet, light cognac, subtly wooded. So much flavors, all in great balance. Absolutely beautiful.

17.04.2014, 0,25l bottle @ Akkurat Bar & Restaurant:
Small brown slightly bubbly-creamy mediumlasting head. Aroma is slightly rich and sweet, oak barrel, dark malts, dark sugar, licorice, cognac, caramel, coffee, grass, dark fruits. Taste is very sweet, dark sugar, oak, burnt caramel, burnt coffee, grass, dark roasted malts, ashtray, caramel, cognac. Medium bitterness, slightly dry mouthfeel. Nice, but far from fantastic. I actually think the regular Stormaktsporter is way better.

Small bottle @ Akkurat in Stockholm

A - Pitch black 2 finger espresso head. Looks fantastic in the glass, nice oily sheen.

S - Really nice aroma. Sweet, whiskey liqueur and brown sugar and maple syrup with a solid espresso. A little smoke/tobacco

T - Sweet taste. Milk chocolate some burned oak and marshamallow as well as almonds. Good barrel presence with for sure sweet liquor and a little blackberry. Very well layered and extremely balanced

M - Dense oily mouthfeel with soft carbonation

O - This was an incredible imperial stout. The layering of flavors and overall presentation of this beer is remarkable.

(250ml bottle @ Akkurat..where else?, Dec 29 2014) Pours black with just a tiny ring of off white bubbles. Aroma contains fantastically deep intense dark chocolate and rich malts, smooth vinous cognac, woody, cooked blackberry and plum? Type dark fruit and an ashy roast. Palate is intensely concentrated, chocolate and dark malts with loads of that vinous cognac character and some wood, great barrel extraction. Lots of fruitiness from the cognac mid palate, dark fruit and grape, molasses sweetness. Some slight brandy heat on the finish, restrained but clear ashy roast, soft bitterness. Long long aftertaste. Medium full, oily, slightly creamy body with soft carb. The flavours are so intense and concentrated here, but the beer is smooth and elegant and easy to drink. Too easy! Phenomenal beer.

How: Bottle.
Where: Akkurat, Stockholm.
Appearance: Black colour with a small beige head.
Aroma: Cognac, alcohol, some vanilla.
Body: Full body oily mouthfeel, no carbonation.
Flavour: Alcohol, chocolate, cognac. A sweet aftertaste.
Comment: A good beer, but the alcohol is too evident and takes away a lot from both aroma and flavour.

245 SEK 9% Akkurat 15th anniversary  beer. Dark inky black, viscous pour with a thin tan head which dissipated quickly. Nice cognac sweet chocolate taste. Very silky smooth, cognac, oaky, sweet & a bit boozy but incredibly smooth. Excellent easy drinking stuff.
