Bottle at home.. Dark black... Thin tan lacing.. Soft dark dusty coffee chocolate roast malts nose... Dark chocolate roast malts.. Woody bitter herbal chocolate.. Light boozy finish
Olen tahtnud seda juba väga ammu proovida ja lõpuks sain Beer Republicust mõistliku raha eest. Magus ja kohvine, tugev vanilje ja suhkur, röst ja kohv muidugi ka, mõrudust, linnased, nats alksi, aga ABV kohta väga ok. Hea, väga libisev.

Bottle thanks to Ibrew2or3: Poured an oil sludge black with a finger light brown head. Aroma is boozy, chocolate, roasted malts, coffee, vanilla. Taste is like sex in the mouth...boozy, bourbon, silky dark milk chocolate, roasted malts, coffee, vanilla, toffee, smooth finish.

355ml bottle. (2022 vintage). Pours an opaque black with a medium, creamy, short lived, brown head that laces. Sweet aroma of roasted malt, milk chocolate, coffee, bourbon and oak. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, dark chocolate, coffee, licorice, vanilla and oak in a dry, mild bitter, bourbon warming finish. Medium to full body with a sticky, smooth, oily texture and soft carbonation. A world class Impy that was a pleasure to sip on.

Crowler from Harvest. Pours a pitch black with a full finger of brown head that lingers. Big espresso and coffee aromas with some tobacco notes as it warms. Bourbon is there on the nose as well as some cacao nib notes. More of the same on the palate...espresso, bourbon, oak and cacao nib. Warming bourbon finish with espresso all the way down. Glad I was finally able to try this whale. Very nice BA stout.

15k tick! Draught @ Ale Tales, San Diego. Intense with coffee notes, some sweet vanilla, roastiness, bourbon and cocoa. Heavy and pretty good
