Top fermented beer which is subjected to a secondary fermentation in bottle. It is deep dark ebony in color with a cappuccino head. The nose has aromas of chocolate, licorice, coffee grounds and tobacco with alcohol nuances. Its full bodied, long lasting, smooth and dry mouth is followed by a surprisingly hot finish that breaks its initial fullness and makes you crave more!

Picked this up at LP Binny’s. Pitch black 1 finger bubbly espresso head. Very faint milk chocolate and coffee latte and vanilla. Really nice mouthfeel. Creamy and silky smooth. a lot of charcoal and peat but a chocolate overtone. Nice finish with lingering roasts.

From tap at Ma Che Siete, Rome. Roasted malty aroma with mostly chocolate, light coffee, raisins. Sweet and bitter taste, very spicy, coffee and chocolate again. Light to medium, thin to oily with average carbonation and bitter spicy finish.

Tan foam, black liquid, the foam shrinks fast with little lacing left behind.

I get roasted malt, coffee, chocolate of the dark kind, licorice, and a fruity/boozy aroma reminiscent of something which was barell aged.

I get chocolate and roasted malt out of the gate, hints of coffee, definite licorice...some booze.

I would call it medium bodied with lightish carbonation.

A very good tasting Imperial Stout that however, drinks a lot stronger than what the abv is. Still, I cannot give it a thumbs down by any means.

Flaske 330ml fra Vinmonopolet, Bestillingsutvalget. Kullsort. Høyt mokkafarget skum som varer lenge. Aroma av røstet malt. Smaken er lakris & sjokolade. Blir fort syrlig & tørr. Innholdsrik og alkoholen er godt integrert.
