Imperial Porter as dark and bitter as mid winter - and as full-bodied and inspiring as the return of the sun. Brewed from grain and oats with innumerable types of malt, conjuring tangible tones of chocolate and caramel. Goes perfectly with Christmas dinner desserts, and ideal for laying down for a few years.

Oddly enough I find everything about this beer seems subtle, but again, quite strong. The dark roasted malts, notes bitter cocoa powder, and soy, are soft but very upfront. Silky mouth feel, soft carb. Intense dark roasty finish, with a subtle dark fruitiness.

Shared 330 ml bottle, ABV 8%. Black colour, small beige head. Nice roasty aroma, notes of chocolate, vanilla, mild coffee and caramel. The flavour is not too sweet, with the same elements as the aroma. Good beer.

Bottle shared with JMD and SM on board Fridtjofen 03.12.18. Ebony. Beige head. Aroma of mash, dark malt, vanilla and wood. Taste is better and more complex, with roasted barley, dark caramel, burnt wood, pine and vanilla.
