Sputnik was the first artificial Earth satellite that triggered the Space Race between the Soviets and USA back in the 1950s. Our tribute to the Russian Imperial Stout style orbits around the dark matter of rich chocolate, coffee, raisins and molasses. This is a beer that demands space and time. It travels the void between the accepted and the unearthly. Prepare for lift off.

Bottle at Rådhuskällaren, Umeå. Opaque black color, creamy beige head. Toasted malty, licorice aroma. Full-bodied. Licorice, chilli, toasted malts, alcohol punch. Some veggie notes. Ok although a bit simple.

Keg at BrewDog Kungsholmen, Stockholm. Dark brown, small head. Chocolate and earth, madeira and crude oil up front. Mid dry with full body and gentle, rounded mouthfeel. Earthy licorice and dark chocolate. Long bitter finish. Unusually balanced and pleasant imperial stout with some salmiak.

(Draught at Bishop’s Arms Folkungagatan, Stockholm, 12 Feb 2016) Black colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with dark chocolate, coffee, liquorice and blueberries. Malty, roasted taste with notes of black coffee, dark chocolate, liquorice, aged rum and a slightly vinous finish with a generous roasty bitterness. Full body, with a certain sweetness. Really taste and well made imperial stout, quite well balanced for its strength. Very nice.
