Troubadour Imperial Stout is a real Imperial Stout, but with a Belgian twist. The beer is almost black and has a solid crème coloured head. It is a powerful beer with strong roasted fragrances. You can taste notes of chocolate, toffee and coffee, followed by a bitter aftertaste.

100 ml sample. Dark brown, big beige head. Spicy „Belgian” aroma - green pepper, very light roast. The taste is light sweet, masked by a brutal burnt bitterness. Not much chocolate etc. Pretty harsh. (backlog 17-JAN-2016)

From a 330ml bottle on 26/1/2016. Pours a deep brown with a small to medium head. Has an unusual nose for an impy with Belgian yeast and spice most prominent. In the mouth, it’s a little more standard, with lots of chocolate, cocoa and fudge, some mild spiciness and medium roasty bitterness. The texture is quite creamy and the carbonation soft. While not the most sophisticated or complex brew, it’s still pretty tasty, bold and rather enjoyable.

Bottled. More or less black colour with a mediumsized brown head to it. Aroma is alcohol, quite much roasted malts, some ashes as well as mild yeasty spiciness and some honey and ripe fruits to it. Flavour is rather sweet, alcohol, liquorice, some ripe fruits and honey along with some mild ashy and roasted notes.

At Peter Rabbit & Friends, Madrid. Pours dark brown with red shades. Dense thick tan head. Aroma is vanilla, chocolate, espresso, ruccola and strawberry. Mouth feels silky, dense, creamy. Low carb. Great final bitterness. No licorice flavor whatsoever, even though I specifically looked for it. Very nice stout.

Bardzo unikalny ten stout. Aromat rozczarowywuje kapke, smak wrecz przeciwnie. Wytrawny. Drewniany. Goryczkowy. Owocowy. Kawowy. Zlozony.

Casi negra opaca. Abundante espuma beige. Aroma malteado, chocolate bien presente. En boca carácter tostado, predominio de café, algo de vainilla y chocolate, amargor potente. Alcohol presente pero disimulado: bastante bebible. Buen cuerpo, bien de gas. Excelente postgusto, seco, amargo, bastante chocolate.

Taste is medium+ sweet sugary chocolate, spices, some roasted malt, bit yeasty, alcohol in the finish with the accompanying warmth, dry medium roasty bitterness. Medium to full bodied, creamy, soft carbonation.
