A decadent liquid desert constructed of fresh Raspberries, warm chocolate and liquoricey treacle your nose is filled with warm, sticky comforting flavours. The palate goes deeper and more complex with a heady hit of sweet raspberry tartness, bitter dark Javan chocolate burnt vanilla and nutty caramel notes that lead to a long lingering finish of bitter fresh vanilla pods, raspberries and a dusting of cocoa. Pure gluttony.

Can from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is strong tart raspberries with roasted malt, cocoa, chocolate, and fruit cake. Flavour is tart and medium sweet with an in-your-face sourness. Body is medium, should be way more full. The raspberries are quite dominant, I would have liked a lot more balance. Sour raspberry Stout, chocolate, pretty fun stuff, eccentric, but lacking balance.

Аромат сразу с легкой кислинкой от ягод. А также много ванили, затем немного шоколадки с намеками на какао. Цвет приятный, темный со стойкой, легко-кофейной, мелкопузырчатой пенкой. Вкус отличный, сначала более ванильный и умеренный сладкий, конечно в основе ваниль тут играет. Далее, при глотке кислинка от малины, как будто еще немного других ягод. Послевкусие плавное, не сильное, при этом хороший баланс между кислинкой и сладостью. Также в финале появляются новые ноты от какао, тоже очень плавно. В целом удивили меня Английские бобры в этот раз.

Can, thick creamy brown head, pitch black color, chocolate, cooca and Ash with lots of raspberries, lightish fruity chocolate sweetness, empathic fruity sourness, a bit liquor like alcoholic sensation, exquisitely balanced, silky mouthfeel. Original and really really really good.

9.5 ABV can in the garden, it's past the BBE, by a few months, but this is Imperial Stout in a can.... Pours black. Aroma is cocoa, dark chocolate, raspberries. Taste is dark chocolate covered raspberries, tart, cocoa, sweet and bitter. Actually it's a good one for the style in the sun.
